1898 MJFA season

The 1898 MJFA season was the seventh season of the Metropolitan Junior Football Association.
Collegians won their third MJFA premiership, having won 14 of its 16 games.

Association membership

Like the previous season in 1897, a total of nine teams competed in the MJFA. Waltham disbanded during the 1897 season, while Boroondara appears to have withdrawn several weeks later.
Beverley and Leopold were both admitted into the competition.

St Mary's expulsion

In June 1898, the MJFA disqualified St Mary's for the remainder of the season and expelled the club from the association. According to the Brighton Southern Cross, the expulsion was for "rough play" and "necessary in the best interests of the game".

South Yarra withdrawal

Sometime in July 1898, South Yarra withdrew from the MJFA. They had played six games prior to this, winning two and drawing the remaining four.
