Hadfield have recruited well haven't they?

Correct! A lot more depth this year and good top end recruits. I have them finishing anywhere from 3rd to 6th. Also Hadfield biased here.. so could be totally off the money. This comp seems to get better and better each year

It's now a good division. EDFL seems very strong at the moment.

Would be better had jacana been able to stay afloat

Had some good battles with them over the years

Lot of heritage just gone


Shame

Rebranded as Dallas FC, only very early stages but hopefully it can slowly build and become a Senior Club in the future

There was no need to rebrand it

Just build it from the juniors up

The demographic and catchment area is going to be the same anyway

Hard area to find juniors though


Also the club isn’t even in Dallas


If it had to be rebranded should have called it Broadmeadows football club


Dallas fc sounds like a soccer club

It was never going to work in the form of Jacana Football Club, that ship sailed long ago and was only kept on life support by a cash injection that was poured into Cloke and co.

I’ll assume you don’t know the history to suggest Broadmeadows Football Club ? Probably not the best idea to attract young families

Dallas FC was born out of the local Auskick centre that is growing, natural progression is under 8’s & under 10’s. Long way off an established club at Jacana Reserve but it’s a step in a positive direction.

For what it’s worth I like the name and the colours

I actually do remember Broadmeadows united


And the families they’re trying to atttact wouldn’t have a clue about the history of the club

I can’t see any reason for a new club to start up as opposed to restarting jacana with a new group of people organising it and trying to create a new buzz

Raising money and sponsors which is the hardest role of football in an area more inclined to soccer


Before Cloke came along jacana were actually building nicely had a group of guys who’d played juniors there. On the cusp of finals

At the end of the day whether they call it Dallas fc or jacana I doubt the result would be any different

Correct me if I’m wrong but is the Dallas FC starting from Dallas Primary School? Heard that if the child doesn’t attend this school and cannot be part of the club. Surely the EDFL wouldn’t allow that.

Pic on their Facebook page doesn't have any conditions or restrictions like that

The club originated from the Hume Crescent Auskick centre apparently.

Will be interesting to see how TL stacks up against riddell who are probably flag favs in the RDFL this year. Been a lot of talk on TL and their recruitment over the off season.

I would think that riddell would have them covered especially at home but will give a good indicator on just how good TL will be.

Donno how strong Kilmore will be, would think kangas would win that one. Good for them to get a pre season scalp after facing a pretty good unit in Kyneton last week. How are kangas shaping up for the praccy vlov? Know they had a lot out against Kyneton with cricket commitments.

And the ES v melton praccy I would expect
To be competitive.

If you were Riddell, you'd be hoping for an easy(min 10gl) win considering they're playing a C Grade side from the EDFL

I don't know much about Ridell, but C grade isn't what it once was. Some of these teams are legitimately good.

Riddell won last week against Kangaroo Flat by about 15 goals and were without about 10 regulars. Permitting those lads are available I'd say they'll account for TL pretty comfortably. But if they don't, and TL manage to keep up or even beat them look out Div 2!

For my Kangas I think playing Kilmore will give them a chance to really work on some issues. They were missing a lot of players last week so I'm sure Shaggs will be keen to get a good look at what the seniors will be able to do this year. But I'm not sure who's available and who's not!

I really hope the thunder are more competitive than last year. I'd say they are around about the same level as Centrals. Makes for a good comp when all teams are going well and only helps the comp going forward.

Hopefully everyone gets thru unscathed

I agree. I feel sometimes both some EDFL div 2 teams and the RDFL teams don't really get the recognition they deserve. Onward and upwards for both comps
