Super League has used a play-off system since Super League III in 1998. When introduced, 5 teams qualified for the play-offs, which was subsequently expanded to 6 teams in 2002. The 2012 season will follow the same format that has been used since the 2009 season, which consists of an 8-team play-off.
The winning team from week one with the highest league placing will be allowed to select their opponents for week three in the Club Call.
Except for the Club-Call, the current play-off format follows the play-off system of the Australian Football League.
