Imagine Killucan delegated getting this brutal new championship format in to benefit themselves to make the playoffs and still not being able to do so. Should campaign that 4 teams from section B get in next year, joke-shop.
Both Castledaly and Multy in Inter A have two games left and basically nothing to play for, i'm sure they're are other teams in the same boat too.

Structure is terrible but it's not why Castledaly and Multyfarnham have zero points; the gap is widening at intermediate. The structure is also not the reason Caulry have 0.

So while I'll be the first to say it's a poor format it's definitely leaves a lot on the line for the top 4 teams in each group going into the last two games.

There's a difference between qualifying for knockout stages and staying in Section A, Caulry's ambition at this stage is to avoid demotion to Section B, that's still achievable despite other posters claiming it's not.

In old system how would it be different for Castledaly and Multy? Both sides have lost three successive championship matches, comprehensively in five of the six games. What system would suit them?

Was this Killucan's proposal? Did they not propose the previous format also? How do they have so much pull??

Multy did not lose comprehensively yesterday, in fact they were unlucky to lose against arguably the best Inter side. It was a great game, if only you were there.
