Format: 

• Regular season: The highest ranked team after the 20 rounds, wins the title of "Premiers".

• Knockout stage: The Australian format is a bit different from a 'normal' knockout phase. The top four teams from the regular season advance to the single-game knockout elimination-semi-finals. The Premiership winners will face the regular season runners-up in one semi-final. In that semi-final the winner advances to the Grand Final to contest the league title, however the defeated team will have a second chance at the championship through a Preliminary Final, when they play the winner of the other semifinal - between seed Nos. 3 and 4.
