Delete unsourced article about a team in a league where games are often forfeited because it's difficult to get the lads to away games - doesn't sound professional or notable to me. Also nominating the following teams in the same league, some one-liner articles, some "for more information see our website" sorts, nothing indicating notability in any of them.

 * Comment - Google search has Australian newspaper reference for Border Downs Tintinara such as . The club articles could either be merged into the main league article or (in the case of those that have no information) deleted. -- Sesame ball Talk 18:54, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete all Coverage of individual football matches (ie: match reports) indicate notability of a LEAGUE not of either TEAM. Between seasons is the best time to see if the team is in fact notable: if people care about who the coach will be, then there will be a story about it meaning the team is notable.Ga rrie 02:00, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I suspect I like it is not a valid argument, but I will say that most of these clubs (with multiple teams) have been around for over 100 years in some form and are the predominant sporting and social group in their communities. The clubs will nearly all have had a least one player who has made their way to the Australian Football League or its predecessors and/or a former player from that competiton come and any play with them as a semi-professional after his pro career was finished.  Do the articles need verification? Absolutely, but they can be verified; local sources are available. -- Mattinbgn\talk 20:40, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment. Personally, I support a merge into an article on the league. A mention in the article for the town would also be appropriate. Capitalistroadster 01:55, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge all into Mallee Football League (South Australia) and redirect. Since we have that article on the League (and I see nobody proposing it for deletion), it would serve no purpose whatsoever to delete the club pages rather than merge their content to flesh out the list of clubs there. --Stormie 04:46, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
