Hopefully all the feds (NNSW, Macquarie, Hunter Valley, Newcastle) sort it out for next year, similar to this:

First leg - at home of highest place team. Second leg - at home of lowest place team. If first game is played, and second washed out, the first game result stands. If the first game is washed out, the second leg is a one-off fixture that the venue is now given to the home team (so regardless of weather on either weekend, the higher place team always sees at least one home final). If neither fixture is played, the highest ranked team goes through.
Hopefully sense will prevail, and the game remains the same as all over the world.
1st to the post, remove the Rugby League GF crap which exists in OZ, GF is there only for the 3rd, 4th and in some cases 5th place teams to recieve a second chance, bit late personally, win througout the year, and not bank on a 1 game result, to blow your trumpet and reign supreme.
