The series

26 July 1947 In front of a packed Sydney Glaciarium the first game was won by Victoria. J. McLauchlan scored for New South Wales in the last minutes of the game.[1][2]
- Game two
29 July 1947 Victoria won the 2nd game of the inter-state series and secured the Goodall Cup. Victoria opened with a 2 - 0 lead in the first period with a goal by A. Sengotti and R. Jones. In the second period, New South Wales reduced the lead when G. Thorn scored. In the third period, E. Winter scored for Victoria.[3][4][5]
