Finals

The Finals are a playoff system of the top 8 finishers in a competition to determine which two teams will play in the Grand Final. The teams play each other over three weeks, with two teams eliminated each week. Teams who finish in a higher position in the competition are given an easier route to the Grand Final.The NRL uses the McIntyre System.

How It Works Edit

 * 1st Qualifying Final: 1st vs 8th
 * 2nd Qualifying Final: 2nd vs 7th
 * 3rd Qualifying Final: 3rd vs 6th
 * 4th Qualifying Final: 4th vs 5th

Week 2 The two losing teams are eliminated, the two winning teams progress to Week 3.
 * 1st Semi Final: 4th highest ranked winner vs 2nd highest ranked loser
 * 2nd Semi Final: 3rd highest ranked winner vs 1st highest ranked loser

Week 3 The two losing teams are eliminated, the two winning teams progress to Week Four.
 * 1st Preliminary Final: 2nd highest ranked winner (from Week 1) vs winner of 2nd Semi Final
 * 2nd Preliminary Final: 1st highest ranked winner (from Week 1) vs winner of 1st Semi Final
