 * Keep this is professional sport we are talking about. Clubs already have player movements for 2021 season. I suggest you stick to topics you know. I've been following this sport for over 10 years and have plenty of experience editing on wikipedia so I know what I'm doing.BGetmefood (talk) 14:14, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Response to BGetmefood: You may want to review Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions, particularly WP:ADHOM: "A deletion discussion is about the article in question itself ... the debate is not about the creator or any other editors of the article, nor is it about the AfD nominator or anyone who has commented on the AfD.

 * We can draftify this until there's a reference or something to say, but considering the 2020 season has finished and the 2021 season will be notable even if it doesn't happen, I don't see a lot of harm in creating this now. SportingFlyer  T · C  15:18, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep. Obviously it hasn't started yet, but just as obviously there will be a lot to add before the start of the season and the article itself will be notable. I can't see any benefit in deleting this now and creating it again in a week or a month. Doctorhawkes (talk) 00:29, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. There is enough material for an article now, especially once we include player movements which are already occurring. WDM10 (talk) 07:47, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment. Have removed this discussion from list of rugby union discussion, as this tournament is not a rugby union tournament. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 11:02, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - there have already been discussions reported in national (not local) media about player and coach signings for next season, etc. (e.g. this and ongoing discussions about COVID effects next year (e.g. this. There's enough here for an article without violating WP:CRYSTAL. Deus et lex (talk) 11:33, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment, have notified WikiProject Rugby league of this afd on their talkpage. Coolabahapple (talk) 12:57, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep, they're not in the article, but even a cursory search will easily find the sources necessary for this to pass GNG. Also the 2020 season has already finished. Devonian Wombat (talk) 20:52, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
