Week 2 - Major Elimination Finals
The rankings for each team in week 2 evolves from their week 1 ranking, depending on week 1 match results. These Major Elimination Finals Rankings (MEFR1-6) are determined as follows:
- The first 4 MEF Rankings (MEFR1-4) are awarded to the 4 undefeated teams, in order of Premiership Rankings. Obviously MEFR1 will be the Minor Premiers, as they will be undefeated due to the bye in week 1.
- The final 2 MEF Rankings (MEFR5-6) are taken by the progressing defeated teams, in order of Premiership Rankings.
The two highest ranked teams, MEFR1 and MEFR2, are rewarded with home games against the week 1 progressing losers (MEFR6 and MEFR5 respectively). As both MEFR3 and MEFR4 are undefeated, they play each other at a neutral venue. This venue is to be mutually agreed by participating teams, otherwise the venue is chosen by the governing body.
Major Elimination Finals
Friday
MEFR1 @ Home vs MEFR6
(sudden death match for MEFR6)
Saturday
MEFR2 @ Home vs MEFR5
(sudden death match for MEFR5, and if MEFR1 loses, also sudden death match for MEFR2)
Sunday
MEFR3 vs MEFR4 at neutral venue
(if either MEFR1 or MEFR2 loses, then match becomes sudden death)
Lowest 2 MEF Ranked Losers are Eliminated.
After the week 2 matches are completed, the two lowest MEF ranked losers will be eliminated. There will be only one "lucky loser" that will progress, that being the highest MEF Ranked Loser. If MEFR1, the Minor Premiers, lose in the first match, then the remaining matches become elimination finals for all teams involved. Likewise, the third match will become an elimination match if MEFR2 loses in the second match of the round. For MEFR5 and MEFR6, both of whom were first week losers, a loss will always result in sudden death. To promote fair play, the "lucky loser" who progresses to week 3 will play their next match at their opponents home ground, regardless of their week 3 ranking.
