AFL Finals System - Advantages For Ladder Positions

Advantages For Ladder Positions

Under this finals system, the final eight teams are broken up into four groups of two. Each group of two earns one extra benefit over the teams beneath it. These benefits are home ground finals and the double-chance, whereby a first-week loss will not eliminate the team from the finals. Note that the "home" designations may be irrelvant for games played between teams from the same state – almost all finals games played between two Victorian teams will be held at the MCG, regardless of the "home" team's home ground.

Famous quotes containing the words advantages, ladder and/or positions:

    We work harder than ever, and I cannot see the advantages in cooperative living.

    O, when degree is shaked,
    Which is the ladder to all high designs,
    The enterprise is sick.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    ... liberal intellectuals ... tend to have a classical theory of politics, in which the state has a monopoly of power; hoping that those in positions of authority may prove to be enlightened men, wielding power justly, they are natural, if cautious, allies of the “establishment.”
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
