The JDL draw is out
Not sure what they are hoping to achieve still, most of the historically stronger clubs play each other just like the clubs new to JDL are up against each other as well.
Looking at a rough breakdown of the boys teams - there are 28 (30 in U9's) teams per age group so if they are looking for two different pools it'll be roughly 14 teams per pool.
I know there will be a team or 2 being the exception to the rule, but it could quite easily have been broken down into this for phase 2:
Jaffa's, Olympic, Magic, Edgeworth, Maitland & Azzurri x 2 teams with New Lambton (A) and maybe Adamstown as the first pool.
New Lambton (B), Valentine, Lakes, Wallsend, Weston, Sth Cardiff, West Wallsend, Kahibah, Cooks Hill, Toronto & Singleton squads making up the second pool.
The biggest unknown is Central Coast United and where they will fit into the mix.
Surely this could have been worked out in conjunction with the clubs TD's rather than doing these fast 5 games?
