How about something simpler? You can do a 3-6-6 model in an 8 game format. The only difference is you play every team every 3 years instead of 2. You have 3 permanents, a group of 6 teams you play every 2 years, and a group of 6 teams you play every 3 years


The problem you run into is matching home and away games year in and year out, which is where podding the teams together really helps.

True. One simple tweak to make that work though is instead of alternating the 2nd group every year, you play a home and home with that group 2 years in a row, and then do a home and home with the other 3 teams.
