Result: DRAW

Fitzroy's first goal against Port Melbourne on 9 Aug 1890 was kicked on the half-time bell. The goal was awarded by the umpire but disputed by Port Melbourne.

        The dispute was heard at a meeting of the Association on 12 Sep 1890 and the delegates decided that the goal should be disallowed.

        The result of the match was changed to a draw. The result above and the final ladder reflect this decision.
