1984 NSWRL Season — Final Regular-Season Ladder
13 teams (Newtown expelled after 1983); 26 rounds scheduled but each team had 2 byes, so 'played' (actual matches) = 24 for every team. Competition points: 2 for a win, 1 for a draw, plus 2 points awarded automatically for each bye — verified by recomputing each team's total against the published competition points. Grand Final: Canterbury-Bankstown defeated Parramatta 6-4.
