Australian Playoff Discussion Paper – February, 2020
At the time of introducing the current playoff structure the Tournament Committee (TC) said they
would consult and review the structure at the end of the 4-year cycle.
This paper is designed to commence the consultation process for Playoffs for the 2022
representative teams onwards.
The paper asks a number of questions and identifies a number of alternatives. This is to facilitate
discussion and input. The TC does not have a preferred position. Interested parties are invited to
comment on alternatives identified and raise other options not considered in the paper.
Please provide written feedback to the TC by 31 July 2020 via the email address playoffsdiscussion@abf.com.au
