    Lol, I'll be ****ing supporting GC and NQ this season because they are the new teams and I hope they succeed tbh.

    I never really got behind Sydney in the first place tbh. Waiting for the Western Sydney team.

    Sydney won't get a 2nd team until they got a consistant big following and crowd figures around 20,000 to each home game.

    What a joke making the finals top 6 for this year.

    60% of teams will make the finals. As a club CEO that's a pretty good guarantee for on field and off field success...

    Exactly, you can be absolute balls all year, limp into 6th spot and get a game in the finals?

    What a farce.

    Should of left it top four.

    In English football, Championship and lower, the top 2 teams get promoted, then 3rd to 6th are put in play offs.

    Thats 6 teams out of 24!.

    There's no logic behind making it a 6 team final system with only what? 10 teams in the league?

    It's all about $$$. The only thing I like about it is that the season gets extended.

    Do 3-6 play off for the third team to go up?

    1 v 2 play off over two legs to go straight into the final.

    3 play 6 in the first week with 4 against 5. Only one leg though and the two winners face off over one leg again the round after. The winner of that game plays the loser of 1 v 2 for a place in the final.

    Both 3 and 6 and 4 and 5 play off over two legs to qualify for the single-leg final.

    Problem is they put more games in almost the same period of time. It needs to be longer + a knockout comp with the State leagues.

    12 teams all play each other twice home and away (24 games) + Each team plays 4 games against teams which will bring max profit. (2 home, 2 away) ie. derbies/rivals etc

    = 28 games.

    An Australian version of the FA Cup would be epic. With all the teams in Australia being involved :p

    They'd never make an FA Cup-style knockout competition with the state league teams, because then there'd be the possibility of a Bonnyrigg v Sydney United match-up, or something similar... which is one of the major reasons why the NSL failed and they made the A-League.

    I'd love a knockout competition as well, but it'd never happen in Australia IMO.

    A knockout comp would be epic, although I doubt it will ever happen.
