Records and source discrepancies

The final Professional table awards both East Side Raw and NZ Plague 20 Masters points. These entries are retained as published without treating them as evidence of identical final placings.[1][4]

Relentless's third-place Semi-Professional result at Round 3 is explicitly confirmed by the contemporary report, even though its retained points subsequently appear under Professional.[1][3]

The organiser published the following season awards.[4]

Professional Player of the Year	Ben Simpson — Sydney SWAT
Semi-Professional Player of the Year	Micha Radnich — Gold Coast Rage
Amateur Player of the Year	Dave Cowell — Collateral
Novice Player of the Year	Will Gunton — Spartans
