[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 846391, member: 20605"] The first thing I would change if some sort of conference system is retained is to do away with the reserved home quarter final. Winning your conference gets you a guaranteed place in the playoffs, but you get ranked along with everyone else and you are seeded accrdingly. However, the simplest thing to do would be..... NZL - 5 teams AUS - 4 teams (cut the Force) SAF - 5 teams (cut the Kings) Jaguares Sunwolves Total 16 teams... everyone plays everyone else once including 2 byes (17 weeks) Top 8 to the Quarter Finals with no reserved places Semis and Final (3 weeks) Total 20 weeks (exactly the same length as current format) Its that simple!!!!
