The home side took an 11 point lead into quarter time, but it was a deceptively small gap as they had much the better of play and six more scoring shots. Melbourne improved in the second term, continuing to make the most of their opportunities while Essendon were wasteful.

Melbourne fell away again the third term, conceding four goals to one, then a further three goals to one in the last term.

Best were Nolan, Purse and Sowden. Drane suffered a leg injury.
