Despite its schedule being marred by unforeseen weather on multiple occasions, the return of the Men's State League after three years was a much-awaited one. Held at Blacktown International Sportspark on September 11 & 18, as well as October 30, the event featured six teams from around the state. 

Bettles, Dolphins, Thurabredz, Titans, Tropics and United featured in the three-day event which had its group games played on the first two days. Tropics were the first to advance to the Grand Final, beating Dolphins in the pre-final game on Sunday afternoon. They were eventually joined by the latter who edged past United to seal their Grand Final berth. 

Held at 7:30 pm on Diamond 1, the Grand Final saw the Tropics extend their unbeaten streak in the league, claiming the title with a convincing 9-2 result.
