This attempt to be fair proved a 100% failure so lets just switch up the R 1-13 order on a yearly basis then play the R 1-5 teams twice & go with the luck of the draw on a year to year basis.

The Cats now have a dream run at 4th under this revision.

In my view the Fockers have earnt 4th spot after the 13th round by defeating all the challengers (except the Blues)& now come the end of the season may lose the double chance due to a late season draw change.(Playing the Brians or Power in R18 is not a small diff!)

Happy to go with this revised draw as i am willing to back my team in on the proviso that events like this cannot be repeated.

You could just have a 13 round season followed by finals. Just because the actual season goes for 22 rounds doesn't mean a game like this has to. I dont think having the grand final in round 22 (which I assume is what happens) is ideal because of inconsistencies in real team selection i.e. AFL clubs out of finals giving more fringers/kids a go.

I'm in another comp which is just 15 rounds followed by finals (16 team comp) which works perfectly. And also Russians comp on Bigfooty is I think 15 rounds (16 team comp) and then has an extended finals series which I think lasts the rest of the season. Might be worth considering.
