Or just set the draft order at the end of round 17 when everyone played twice.
Yeah this is much better than locking 7th out of rising up the ladder.
What if there is a clear top 2, but a blanket could be thrown over 3rd-8th? It's bullshit to lock teams that are within striking distance out of top 4 calculations (and therefore, premiership calculations).
If you want to stop teams from tanking, do what Crankyhawk suggested and do it after 17 rounds, or maybe set the draft order based on the order that sides mathematically could no longer make finals, giving clubs insentive to try hard until they can't make it and then their draft order is set anyway so they may as well continue to have a crack.
