The Dallas Dingoes are an Australian Rules Football team based in Dallas, Texas, United States. Formed in 1997 as the Dallas Outlaws, the team would play under that moniker until 2000. In that year the team changed its name to the Dallas Magpies after forming an alliance with the Collingwood Magpies of the Australian Football League (AFL). In 2018, a few years after the end of the partnership with the Collingwood Magpies, the club re-branded as the Dallas Dingoes.[1]
Team history
[edit]Dallas Outlaws (1997–2000)
[edit]Formed in 1997 by Brett Ryan, Andrew Holland, and Chad Stover as the first Australian rules football team in Dallas.[2]
Dallas Magpies (2000–2019)
[edit]In 2000 Dallas Outlaws formed an alliance with the Collingwood Magpies, taking on the Magpies' nickname and a similar logo. The Magpies were the subject of league controversy in 2012 and were found to have cheated, breaking league rules and were subsequently stripped of a Division title.[3]
Dallas Dingoes (2019 – Present)
[edit]After several years of no association with the Collingwood Magpies due to the 2012 scandal, the team leadership decided to re-brand as the Dallas Dingoes.
