Polo Tournament: The Draw?

;256605']Right now there are 4 really good teams who all have a good chance at winning. With a random draw those teams could potentially play each other in the first two rounds leaving one of those teams advancing on and playing a mediocre team in the final making for a boring tournament.

I agree, seeding is the way forward with a straight knock-out tourney.

So that means teams that have been given shittest odds to win* will have to play against the best teams in the first round, effectively giving us even less chance to progress.

*(like ours... thanks flickwg - even though Jo and Ali are much better players than you)

The only fair way is a public random draw.
