Note 1: This table has been calculated based on all club matches played in Brisbane and Ipswich this season, including by Seconds teams (B teams). The table roughly reflects the 1886 team records presented at the 1887 AQFA annual general meeting (Brisbane Courier 14/05/1887).

Note 2: Two Ipswich based clubs Bundanba Rovers and Queenslanders were formed at the start of this season but did not survive into 1887. Swifts was a Brisbane based team formed this season, which played four matches but did not re-appear in 1887.
