On August 22 the members of the rival Toronto Rugby Club decided to merge with the Argos, a decision that was made official at a joint meeting of the two clubs on August 28. The combined team operated under the name "Toronto-Argonaut Rugby Football Club" and played in the traditional "double-blue" uniforms of the Argonauts.[2]
Retaining the services of Toronto RC manager W. A. Hewitt and a number of his players, the "Tor-Argos" finished in second place in the senior series of the ORFU with four wins (two by forfeit) and two losses, while the first-place Hamilton Tigers qualified for the Dominion playoffs by winning the series with a perfect record.
