Qld Times 17/09/1895. aet (2 x 15 minutes)

 

Note 1: Abbreviations in the results for matches where the result is known, but the score is unavailable: W = Won; D = Drew; L = Lost; U = No record of result or if the match was played.

Note 2: Round 2 South Brisbane vs. Brisbane Athletic was played at Alloways Dairy, West End (now Davies Park) on 08/06/1895. This match finished 10 minutes early due to darkness, but the result stood.

Note 3: Round 4 Rosebank vs. Brisbane Athletic. A forfeit was awarded to Rosebank (Brisbane Courier 24/06/1895) but a QBFA meeting ordered the match to be replayed on 20/07/1895 at the Pineapple Ground (Brisbane Courier 20/07/1895).

There is no record of this match having been played at the later date, and it is likely the forfeit was confirmed at this time.

Note 4: Round 6 South Brisbane vs. Dinmore Bush Rats was scheduled for 27/07/1895, the start of the Second-Round of matches. Dinmore Bush Rats came to Brisbane and South Brisbane forfeited. A friendly match resulted: South Brisbane 2 Dinmore Bush Rats 1 (Qld Times 30/07/1895).

It seems likely that South Brisbane and Brisbane Athletic withdrew from the Challenge Cup at this point. The only Challenge Cup fixtures after 27/07/1895 involved the other three teams, so it can be reasonably inferred that the Second-Round fixtures of South Brisbane and Brisbane Athletic were annulled.
