Less than 48 hours to vote. There are still 10 owners that have not voted.

A poll was posted for a change in how the teams are seeded in the playoffs concerning wildcard teams.

The current rule for the playoffs, the division winners get seeds 1,2,3 and the wildcard is seeded 4 regardless of points total. Home venue goes to the division winner with the most points. Wildcard entry will not have any home venue advantage throughout the playoffs. The championship match is held at a neutral site with no home venue advantage for either team.

#1 faces #4 (wildcard)
#2 faces #3

The proposal you will be voting on

Amendment to the current playoff system.

The only exception would be if #1 seed and the wildcard are from the same division. The wildcard should never face its divison leader in the first round of the playoffs. If this happens, seeding for the playoffs would be as follows.....

#1 faces #3
#2 faces #4 (wildcard)

Use the link below and it will direct you to the poll.
