Postseason

The Argonauts' 7-6 victory over Toronto in the Eastern Final on November 20 was voided by the Canadian Rugby Union on November 23, in response to a formal protest filed by the losing team concerning a scoring decision by the game officials. As a result of the decision to uphold this appeal, the two teams were directed to replay the second half of the game, on November 27, with the score standing at 2-0 in favour of the Argonauts, as it had stood at halftime in the first game.
