| Event data |
| Name: Adelaide Handicap Tournament - Play-offs |
| Place: Adelaide |
| Start date: Sep. 1878 |
| End date: 22 Oct. 1878 |
| |
| Notes: |
| In the main tournament there was a 4-way tie for first, so they played off in a single-round all-play-all format. That left Steele and Govett still tied for second and third, so they played one additional game. |
