After two promising performances to start the season, the second worst team of 1910 came back to earth. Melbourne were kept goalless for the first time since Round 16, 1899.
The Reds' defenders held their visitors reasonably well, and they had their winners in the middle of the ground, but everything from half-forward failed.
