Footscray Thistle had been established sometime between late 1912 & early 1913 and were promoted directly into division 1, bypassing the newly formed division 2. The new division 2 was to consist of six clubs, four of which were to debut in the Victorian state league system plus the two relegated division 1 clubs. These four new clubs consisted of Hawthorn, Moorabbin, Preston and Spotswood. The top two finishing teams played off in a grand final to determine the league champions, whilst division 1 did not contest a finals series.
