- Average PPG
Under the rules in place in 1928, the Minor Premier was allowed the opportunity to challenge the winner of the grand final. South Sydney won from third place behind St. George and Easts. Because the latter two teams finished equal on 26 points, no single Minor Premier was declared and therefore no challenge could be issued.
