Dead rubber -- Queensland had already clinched a 3-0 whitewash. Tony Hearn (Queensland) was alleged to have headbutted Mark Carroll in the 28th minute; he was not sent off during the match itself but was later suspended 8 games by the judiciary -- a post-match disciplinary action, not an in-game sanction, so no sin-bin/send-off is recorded here. Queensland's own player-of-the-series award for 1995 (era-name 'Wally Lewis Medal,' now retrospectively the Ron McAuliffe Medal) went to Gary Larson.
