Week1 Recap

There are a few story lines developing right from the outset of the 2010 DFL season.


The top story of course, is the Perth Panthers as they come out the gate with an expected victory, but the Mississauga KG Unit almost had something to say about that, as they almost provided the season's first big upset by losing by a slim margin of 23 to 22.



However, over in the East the upstart Philadelphia Rolling Thunder shocked the Applecreek team 14 to 7. With a strong running game and some aggressive running the Thunder literally ran away from their Applecreek rivals We will see if the Thunder are for real or if they just caught Applecreek by surprise?


After a slow start and some questionable plays Kanisa was able to overcome a much improved Scarborough General football team 19 to 5. The score was not a reflection on how hard Scarborough General's played.


That all being said, anyone who's been around this league knows these opening games is a small step towards engraving a team's name on the championship trophy. There's a whole lot of football left to play before anyone can do just that.

Week4 Recap

Perth Panthers cruising at the vanguard after a complete, shut-out victory over the Scarborough Generals, 38-0. Football aside, sticking together through adversity will be the touchpoint for the Generals down the stretch that pays dividends in everyday life beyond the football field.

Mississauga KG Unit taking care of their business, defeating Toronto East Titans 33-14. After the Titans emotional win over the Kanisa Omegas, a 1-2 must be disappointing to a team with plenty of talent and upside.

Philadelphia Rolling Thunder were undefeated heading into a highly anticipated showdown with what appeared to be a moribund Kanisa Omegas under Saturday Night Lights on Crescent School Field. However, the Omegas won convincingly 39-27 and sent a very clear message to the elite of the league - the Kanisa Omegas are back on track and will be looking to assume what they feel is their rightful place atop the standings.

Competition is heating up in the DFL - and it's got nothing to do with the weather.

Week2 Recap

There are plenty of story lines developing even at this early stage of the season.

The top story is, of course, the Philadelphia Rolling Thunder - aptly named, they are rolling off to a fast 2-0 start.

The Toronto East Titans and Perth Panthers have asserted that they are not pretenders, both enjoying a 1-0 start, with the Titans particularly savoring a grudge win over the team that eliminated them in last year's playoffs, the Kanisa Omegas.

Mississauga KG Unit and the Kanisa Omegas are two teams that, while sharing a .500 start, appear to be going in different directions: with players from the Spartans, KG Unit may be forging a new identity with upside potential, while conference champ TKO are leaving the door open to a new leader on the east side.

That all being said, anyone who's been around this league knows this season is far too early to start engraving any team name on a trophy just yet. There's a whole lot of football left to play before we have any indication of which teams will emerge to secure the vanguard.
