Top six play-offs

Top six play-offs

After a top five play-off system was used, a play-off structure involving the top six teams has been used to determine the winners of the Super League competition in British rugby league since 2002. Apart from the Grand Final all matches are staged at the home ground of the team placed higher in the final league table. A similar system was used by the Australian National Soccer League to decide its champions. From week two on the Top Six play-offs system reflects exactly the Page playoff system.

How it Works

Week One
* Elimination Semi-final A: 3rd vs 6th
* Elimination Semi-final B: 4th vs 5th

Week Two
* Elimination Final: Winners of Elimination Semi-final A vs Winners of Elimination Semi-final B
* Qualification Match: 1st vs 2nd

Week Three
* Final Qualifier: Losers of Qualification Match vs Winners of Elimination Final

Week Four
* Grand Final: Winners of Qualification Match vs Winners of Final Qualifier

In addition to the Super league, the top six system is also used in Rugby League National Leagues One and Two, as well Rugby League Conference National.
