Very similar to the article deleted in 2020 via PROD, if memory serves me. Still no evidence of meeting WP:NRIVALRY or WP:GNG. Wikipedia is not a statistics database and shouldn't be used for indiscriminate listings of results between all rugby nations unless there are specific sources showing why the meetings between these two particular nations are of importance; see WP:NOTSTATS. There is nothing to suggest that the 'rivalry' between Ireland and Canada in rugby is important enough for its own encyclopaedia article.

Delete: As per NSPORT, Articles about notable games should have well-sourced prose, not merely a list of stats. --Whiteguru (talk) 05:25, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Per nom, It was likely I who PRODed the 2020 article as it failed WP:NOTSTATS AND WP:NRIVALRY. There is no significant coverage of matches between Ireland and Canada being a rivalry, they're just a selection of international tests, and so this is just a list statistics with no real significants. Could potentially be SALTed as I'm not sure a rivalry will ever develop in these matches. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 09:03, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: per nom but there are several more similar list type pages that should also be deleted. ww2censor (talk) 10:24, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
