What's the play off formula for this year ? I hope it is less complicated than a 3 2 1 clue .

What`s the advantage of finishing top rather than 2nd, other than the prize money, and the hub cap?

Will the farce of the top club selecting the semi final opponents happen again?

Finishing 1st rather than 2nd means playing one less game to get to the final.

It’s back to the best one, “Top 5” play-offs

Week One
Qualification Final: 2nd v 3rd
Elimination Final: 4th v 5th
Bye: 1st

Week Two
Semi Final 1: 1st v Winners of Qualification Final
Semi Final 2: Losers of Qualification Final v Winners of Elimination Final

Week Three
Preliminary Final: Losers of Semi Final 1 v Winners of Semi Final 2
Bye: Winners of Semi Final 1

Week Four
Grand Final: Winners of Semi Final 1 v Winners of Preliminary Final


Win the LLS and you get a week off before Semi Final 1. Do that and win Semi Final 1 and you get another week off before the Grand Final. So finishing top now gives you a bigger incentive than previous years.

OK. Thanks.

All gone a bit quiet now

Where?

Like this one Ninearches:

Take one that never changes
Add a pub and a precious stone
Bring them up to date
And now you're all on your own

Turned out to be a holiday in Turkey!
