Play-off match for Fourth Place

 

As a club outside the four (East Sydney) was level on points with the fourth-placed club (North Shore), a play-off was required to decide fourth place.

North Shore advised the League on the Tuesday (20 Aug 1912) prior to the play-off of their inability to muster a team and forfeited the match.
