  1. Julian BJ Taylor

    The Beers vs The Jets is shaping as a pretty ****ing good match.
     
  2. Baxter MJ Deane

    Table done.
    Crunch between Farny and Incey next round :p
     
  3. Julian BJ Taylor

    Boozers game is a big one for my team. If they lose we'll be clear leaders.
     
  4. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    How many teams qualify from each group? Just two?
     
  5. Ged GEC King

    I was wondering this also. I kind of wish that it's 3.
     
  6. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    Exactly what I was thinking.
     
  7. Baxter MJ Deane

    Was going to be two IIRC. I've never had experience with a 6 team finals system.
     
  8. Athlai JJD Heads

    Make it 8 then. ;)
     
  9. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Six teams is easy.

    A - 3 v 6
    B - 4 v 5

    C - 1 v Winner B
    D - 2 v Winner A

    E - Winner C v Winner D


    Or you can make it one game longer if you want by doing a long top four once you get to four teams.

    A - 3 v 6
    B - 4 v 5

    C - 1 v 2
    D - Winner A v Winner B

    E - Loser C v Winner D

    F - Winner C v Winner E

    3 from each group sounds alright to me considering what it is.
     
  11. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Yeah AWTA, it's a really close comp.
     
  12. Julian BJ Taylor

    Will just generate more interest in the finals series.
     
  13. Julian BJ Taylor

    That's the better system IMO. The teams that finish top of their group deserve a non sudden death game IMO.
     
  14. Julian BJ Taylor

    So how would that work out?

    F1 - 2nd Group A V 3rd group B
    F2 - 3rd Group A v 2nd Group B

    F3 - 1st Group A v First Group B
    F4 - Winner of F1 v Winner of F2

    F5 - Loser of F3 v Winner of F4

    GF - Winner of F3 v Winner of F5


    ??????
     
  15. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Yep, exactly that IMO.
     
  16. Julian BJ Taylor

    Lock it in then Eddy.

    Rewards coming 1st and gives 6 teams a chance of winning the whole thing.
     
  17. Baxter MJ Deane

    6/16 for finals is fair then. So long as the majority are happy.
     
  18. Ged GEC King

    Yeah. Plus it allows for one side of the draw being much harder.
    I was thinking about this before. I reckon that it should have just been a 15 rd comp where every team plays all the others. Start the draft for CPL 2 halfway through the comp so that we have some solid momentum going.
     
  19. Baxter MJ Deane

    Start draft at the end of the group stage potentially?
     
  20. Julian BJ Taylor

    So it's completely new teams?

    I reckon you should hold onto a few and cut the rest then a new draft starts. Sorta like IPL.
