Ok. FFA looking at possibility of revamping finals series nxt season. Among options is reducing number of finals teams. Sensible


Great move if true

Hopefully Top 4 or 5 with two legged playoffs each round.

Id like to see a top 5 and adopt the same finals system as the SANFL does here in SA for the footy.

week 1 (team finished top gets week off)
Game 1 2nd vs 3rd Qualifying final 
Game 2 4th vs 5th Elimination final (loser eliminated)

week 2
Game 3 1st vs the winner of game 1 (winner of this week gets following week off and go straight into the GF) Semi final 1
Game 4 Loser of game 1 vs the winner of game 2 Semi final 2 (Loser eliminated)

week 3
Game 5 Loser of game 3 vs winner of game 4 Preliminary final (Loser eliminated)

week 4 (Grand final)
Game 6 Winner of game 3 vs winner of game 5
