The match was played as a curtain raiser to a senior final, allowing the Seconds to play on the MCG after spending the home and away season playing at the Albert Ground.
Geelong started the better side, dominating in the air and forcing the Redlegs to defend. They kicked the first three goals of the game before Ivan Sharp got Melbourne's first. Poor kicking nullified Melbourne's good work early in the second quarter, and they fell further behind before two goals from McInnes kept Melbourne within range.
The third quarter involved more wasteful kicking by Melbourne, with Geelong leading by 25 points. Then McInnes kickeed three goals in a row to cut the margint to 10, before a late Geelong goal restored a 16 point lead at the final change. Melbourne bombarded Geelong's goal early in the last quarter but were unable to break through for the first 10 minutes. Four behinds and a goal to Streeter cut the margin to seven with 10 minutes to play, then another Streeter goal tied the scores. They kicked the last two goals of the game, earning a berth in the Grand Final.
Best were Green, Ryan and Streeter. McInnes had an abdominal injury.
