A 14-round season designed to reward consistency while keeping the race for the Grand Final alive until the closing weeks.
- Rounds 1-12

12 league matches
Each division is 4 teams. Every team plays each of the other three 4 times. Three points for a win, one for a draw, and the ladder is live from round one.

Championship Rounds
1 high-stakes matches
Every team plays every other team once more. All points carry over - there is no reset - so a team outside the top two can still climb into the Grand Final. The standings after this decide Finals Day.
