The player failed to make any first class appearances, he fails WP:NRU. TheMightyPeanut (talk) 20:54, 6 December 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete The article is nice, but I don't think he is notable per our guidelines. He definitely fails WP:NRU for rugby by all means. He is not a professional player and did not play in any of the international competitions laid out in the guidelines. He apparently hoped to play for Griquas (rugby), but that apparently did not materialize. I dont think some unofficial test matches count and he did not join their official rooster in the aftermath apparently (cant find him on their (homepage). Apart from that the article is lacking actual RS; most are just player profiles, facebook posts or youtube videos. I tried to find some RS but I couldn't find anything, above bare mentions in some 1-paragraph news, which would resemble a RS. Since he also does not satisfy WP:GNG this way, due a lack of RS, I think the article should be deleted. Dead Mary (talk) 12:20, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
