| Andy Shaw (SJ) | Other suggestion - state alternative format | 4 sections of 6, playing once each. Top two from each group to QFs. |
| Jason Dowson (CAR) | 6 Sections x 4 teams playing once each - top team plus 2 best 2nd place d to Q Finals? | |
| Rob Lye (AUS) | Status Quo - 8 sections x 3 teams playing once each - top teams to Q Finals? | |
| Steve Turner (CLB) | 6 Sections x 4 teams playing once each - top team plus 2 best 2nd place d to Q Finals? | I like the 6x4. Suggestion for next poll: for one of the other competitions, can we have a WC 2018 format? Include some "youth" teams? 32 teams with 8x4 format. Top 2 per pool make Sweet 16 bracket? Maybe we already have that though... |
| Derek Purvis Jnr (NSS) | Status Quo - 8 sections x 3 teams playing once each - top teams to Q Finals? | I like that it gives the cup a distinct feel from other cups in OASL/other leagues |
| Mark Creasey Jnr (VCC) | 6 Sections x 4 teams playing once each - top team plus 2 best 2nd place d to Q Finals? | do not actually mind either format . |
| Paul Roseblade (CHV) | Status Quo - 8 sections x 3 teams playing once each - top teams to Q Finals? | |
| Willy Krosnyak jnr (FTL) | 6 Sections x 4 teams playing once each - top team plus 2 best 2nd place d to Q Finals? | But not that unhappy with status quo either. |
| Roy Rolsten Jnr (CIW) | Other suggestion - state alternative format | scrap it |
| Bryce Kalmbach (ATL) | 6 Sections x 4 teams playing once each - top team plus 2 best 2nd place d to Q Finals? | |
| Steve Turner Jnr (REB) | Other suggestion - state alternative format | Doesn’t count |
