Should be top 5 or even top 9. Let the top team go through to the final and the rest play off for the right to challenge them. They should have the top ranked team in each week versus the lowest ranked team left in the competition until one left to play top team. If not that for me top of league as champions and bring back the premiership finals and treat it as a seperate competition. It will still have same intensity and will bring in fans still.

They won because they have the big game mentality which goes a long way to it and good on them for winning it again from 5th. I wonder if they'll do it again next year ?
Don't usually get involved in these type of debates however I like the comment of a secondary plate final. I also think the playoffs need to be cut by a few weeks. I have a straight simple knockout idea that could generate interest for all 8 teams after the final week.
Grand final set-up
Challenger finals
Week one
1st finish vs 3rd finish
2nd finish vs 4th finish
Grand final
Winners of two week one games.
Plate final
Week 1
5th finish vs 7th finish
6th finish vs 8th finish
Plate final
Winners of week one.
In total it's 2 weeks of games that matter to all teams all fighting for a final spot. Cutting out the dead rubber first 2 weeks games and simplifying the playoff system.
The finals weekend could be either a double header or spread on the sat/Sunday.
That for me would be a top playoff system and much simpler. The playoffs are just too long.
The 2 weeks cut could be used for an international fixture prep.
They are open to suggestion are the match ups, I just picked what I would like to see. I would very much like to see something similar to what I put down. Fewer matches but straight into the big games that matter most.

It's Eddie and Stevo banging on about the 'Champions' that does my head in. I don't think I'll be watching any games featuring Leeds on Sky next season!
