Originally it was going to be all 6 teams in the finals, so this is a step in the right direction.

"All six teams in the finals"

My jesus what a mess that would've been.. Five teams is bad enough. Teams that finish in the bottom half should not be rewarded for a mediocre season.

Ideally not everyone in the top half of any division should make the Play Offs.

Can someone help me i'm confused by this order of play.

Say the Bulls beat the Wildcats. and Sharks beat Raiders does it go like this

Knights vs Bulls
3rd highest remaining seed (Raiders) vs 2nd highest (Sharks)

Basically the semi final has no inclsuion for the 1st highest remaining seed?

The first highest remaining seed is still new york knights.
They dont go backwards even if they dont play the first week.
This is the same format that bush footy uses. Well i know it is the same for Group 2, Group 3, and NRRRL (former group 18).
Unless the AMNRL have got the seeds around the wrong way... The way they have laid out the text is confusing.
Lets face it, the reason it is the top 5 through to the semi's and not all 6 teams is because the Vipers never existed. The bulls helped them out. It didn't work. Last weeks game - sharks vs vipers didn't go ahead. And when i asked the AMNRL, i got no response.

The AMNRL needs 6 legit teams minimum. 8 would be better. If they are not going to reunite with the guys from the USARL they need to make their product just as good, and at the moment, it is not. The only footage i have seen of the AMNRL this year is from Druzik. And he has been dicked around by the AMNRL yet still turns up to the games and records.
The USARL on the other hand, i have watched games from jax, RI, philly and DC. Thats half the teams with footage being recorded. I don't think it will be too much longer before the axemen get more media exposure, and hopefully this wil help the rest of the teams with other mediums following their footsteps.

Re: AMNRL Expands Again
