The Reds had to scramble to put a side together at the last minute, going in with two debutantes and without Purse, Strong, Mills or Cowell.

Despite their troubles the visitors were ahead with 10 minutes to play, before two late goals carried Essendon over the top.

Best were Robertson, Monk and Norman. Harry Cope suffered a broken rib.
