Ladder 

 3 points for a victory
 1 point bonus for losing team if the margin is less than 12
 If two teams have equal points then the separation factor is point difference. If a team has a greater point difference they rank higher on the table. If still tied then head-to-head matches will be the tie-breaker. Finals Series 
At the end of the regular season, the top six from the regular season advance to the knockout stage. First and second receive a bye for the first week of finals as third plays sixth (Qualifying Final 1) and fourth plays fifth (Qualifying Final 2), with the losers of both matches eliminated. First then plays the winner of Qualifying final 1 and second then plays the winner of Qualifying Final 2.
