Major Semi-Final, 1964 NRL finals series: St. George 42–0 Parramatta Eels, at Sydney Cricket Ground, Sydney, NSW on 5 Sep 1964.
Sourcing caveat: St George's named scorers (9 tries + 9 goals = 45) exceed the recorded 42 by 3 points (one try's worth). It is not known whether this reflects an over-count in the try-scorer list (e.g. Langlands may have scored 2 tries rather than 3) or some other discrepancy; reported honestly as an unresolved 3-point excess rather than adjusting a name or count to force a match.
Scorers
| St. George | Tries: Graeme Langlands (3); Reg Gasnier (2); Peter Armstrong (2); Norm Provan; John Raper Goals: Graeme Langlands (9/12) |
| Parramatta Eels | No scorers recorded. |
