The 1908 MJFA season, also known as the 1908 MFA season, was the 17th season of the Metropolitan Junior Football Association (MJFA). [a]
South Yarra won the MJFA premiership for the first time, finishing first on the ladder after going undefeated for the entire season. [6] This was the last MJFA season to not have a finals series, with the Argus system introduced in 1909. [7]
Like the previous season in 1907, a total of ten teams competed in the MJFA. [8] Brighton left to join the Victorian Football Association (VFA), while University joined the Victorian Football League (VFL). [9] [10]
Carlton District and Oakleigh both applied to enter the MJFA. [11] [12] By "a very narrow majority", Oakleigh's application was accepted. [12] [13] University also entered a reserves team (University 2nd), which it had previously done in 1893. [14] [15] [16]
