2023 Zone Premier League

Is it top 4 this year or does it change for 12 teams?

Top 5. Same system as NPL

Top 5. Same system as NPL

Is it really top 5 this season? What?s the format for the finals series?

Is it really top 5 this season? What?s the format for the finals series?

Week 1
1st bye
2v3
4v5 loser out

Week 2
1 v winner 2/3
Loser 2/3 v winner4/5

Week 3
Winner of 1 v 2/3 straight to GF
Loser of 1v 2/3 will play winner of 2/3 or 4/5

Week 4 GF
Winner of week 3 1 v 2/3 V winner of other game.

Hope that made sense, a club could potentially host 2 to 3 home semi games with this format.

No more home and away legs.

If Hamilton win ZL1 then I wonder what happens. Can?t promote them surely and have two in ZPL. There was the rule that didn?t allow two teams to be this situation but must of changed it to allow them into ZL1.

About time. The home away series is gash

Make them play off against each other to see who stays up.

Best game in Zone League and prob best rivalry in town this Sunday with Dudley v Suns. Suns will be looking for revenge on last years GF. Looks like top of the table clashes in all 3 grades which will add some extra spice. It has always produced fireworks both on and off the field. Fingers crossed they are both full strength and it?s as good a game as usual

Northern must have noticed that and put a former NPL ref on the game.
I think the Suns have a couple of key forwards out or doubtful. I hope not, but that’s what I’ve heard

A simply playoff tiebreaker arrangement would do.

I think cause it is one of the only games on Sunday the pool of refs to pick from is far bigger. It?s one of the upsides of Sunday home games

It's as if we don't talk to each other... Both have to focus on this season first though.

Watch this space.
