Yeah it rewards higher placed finishes by ensuring you have to beat everyone above you away, but in doing so it elongates the play offs and means a lot of fans won't fully grasp the system.

Be great for the game if they do, they have a good ground and we have chance to make inroads in the city with the World Cup games.
