Delete - subject fails WP:NFOOTBALL by not having played in a senior pro match, and fails WP:GNG due to the lack of in-depth sources on the web. I am also tagging the following players for similar reasons:

COMMENT - Tom Biss and Luke Rowe have both played in senior professional games for Wellington Phoenix.Simione001 (talk) 12:03, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the AFD tags from the 4 additional articles - they were not tagged by the AFD creator, and they were tagged after the discussion had started. Please nominate them properly and seperately. Giant Snowman 13:42, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Rowe and Biss, as they have both played in the A-League, meaning they meet WP:NSPORT.
Delete the rest. They fail WP:GNG and WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 13:00, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - The article claims he has played two matches for New Zealand A, doesn't that confer notability ? Mentoz86 (talk) 16:40, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The New Zealand A is not the same as New Zealand national football team; instead it is their B-team. Turkey have called their version the A2. Giant Snowman 16:44, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

COMMENT - Why has this debate been relisted? There are 3 DELETES.Simione001 (talk) 06:01, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I believe my comment above is the reason for the three relists, but as GiantSnowman stated, he has not been capped for New Zealand and fails WP:NFOOTBALL. Also fails WP:GNG as the subject has not received significant coverage in reliable sources. Mentoz86 (talk) 15:21, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - as mentioned ample times already, the subject fails notability guidelines due to not playing at a notable level. C 679 19:53, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
