It's weird to me because it seems to lose the momentum of the season. It also plays with some of the top teams.
The top 8 teams make the finals. 1st plays 4th and 2nd plays 3rd with the winning teams getting the following weeks off. 5-8 and 6-7 play, with those winning teams playing against the losing teams from 1-4 and 2-3. A top four position gives teams a "double-chance" - they can lose in the first week but still make the grand final.
That means that a top four team could play their final regular season game, have the week off, win their opening game in the finals and then have the next week off. They would only play once in a three week period.
