1860 August Match vs South Yarra

Saturday 28 July and Saturday 11 August - Richmond Paddock

Melbourne 1
South Yarra 1

Match drawn

Goalkicker: Thomas Wray 1

The match was started immediately after the game two Saturdays previous, with play until sundown and South Yarra holding a one goal lead.

Upon the restart, with the familiar problem of spectators encroaching on the playing field, it took an hour for Melbourne to equalise through Wray. No more goals were scored before darkness.
