Comment, from the lead of A-League - "The A-League is a professional men's soccer league run by Football Federation Australia (FFA). At the top of the Australian league system, it is the country's primary competition for the sport.". Coolabahapple (talk) 01:08, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Response - That's true however the subject has not played a game in the A-League. Simione001 (talk) 02:03, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 07:07, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 10:16, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, so to clarify, having played with Sydney FC in a final (he also assisted in the SFC's 3rd goal) of the FFA Cup is not enough (even though the FFA Cup is "the main national soccer knockout cup competition in Australia"), and being signed by Sydney FC to the A-League squad, see here also isn't, as he hasn't actually played any games with them yet, so it may be a case of WP:TOOSOON?

Technically yes. I don't think he was in the final though, that report looks like the final score from a round of 32 match according to the main body of the text. The appearance was against a team from a non-FPL, so he doesn't fulfill NFOOTY. You'll need to show wider GNG. Fenix down (talk) 15:06, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The game was a first-round proper game of the 2016 FFA Cup against Wollongong Wolves FC, a team who play in National Premier Leagues NSW, a non-FPL league. — Yellow Dingo (talk) 05:15, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete He has not played in a fully pro league or received significant coverage, meaning the article fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 15:51, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, thanks for the explanation from above editors especially Fenix down, doesnt meet WP:NFOOTY per above or WP:GNG, a gsearch brings up football related articles only. Coolabahapple (talk) 06:49, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
