[Note this draw has had several minor amendments by the AFL.  Latest version is July 27th.]

The AFL have released (assuming no unfortunate late withdrawals) the final copy of the 2011 AFL International Cup draw, for both the Men's and Women's competitions.

The main amendment is that the women's competition will now play 5 rounds (4 matches each) of qualifying matches (including back to back days on the first Wednesday and Thursday), which means each team plays the other once (the much dreamed of "even draw" that eludes the elite AFL competition). The top 2 ranked sides will then play off in the Grand Final, and there will be a 3rd/4th playoff whilst 5th will probably be glad for the day off.

You can download the full draw here or read on for an inline version (this will only be added some time on Friday).
