Non notable, unsourced, not mentioned at Wellington Lions as a notable player. All other current players of team have some mention of notable achievements or athletic history. Delete.  ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ  τ ¢  01:20, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep - It seems this player does exist and has held an important role at some point or another in his career. I quote this Dominion Post article, "Injuries to prop Neemia Tialata and lock Jeremy Thrush have soured the start of the Wellington Lions' buildup to Saturday's Air New Zealand Cup final." herecomes the important part, "The two key forwards both went down at the team's first training session of the week yesterday with Tialata's latest knee injury appearing to be the more serious of the two." In another article by TVNZ they say, "Lions' lock Jeremy Thrush - one of their best on the night - quickly scored a spectacular five point reply for the visitors after a perfectly timed chip and chase from fullback Cory Jane." Okay and in this article there is a heck of alot about him including pictures and game summaries. More sources include, , , . I would add the reason why he wasn't on their website is because he was trades to a team called the hurricanes of which there are more sources, , , . I said weak because I don't know much about Rugby, or their leagues. - Marcusmax  ( speak ) 02:59, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Even if that was added to the article, I'd support a keep. The article as it stands though is bleak. I also know nothing of Rugby so I don't want to add something that I'm clueless about. --  ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ  τ ¢  03:07, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I would normally stub something out of this, maybe add an infobox etc. but as I know nothing about Rugby I can't do that in this situation. - Marcusmax  ( speak ) 03:10, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep Not mentioned at Wellington Lions as a notable player? There you can read that he was in the squad for the 2008 Air New Zealand Cup. Unsourced is no reason for deletion, this is a discussion about notability. Played in the 2008 Air New Zealand Cup. Expanded the article, the sources for this you can find in the history. --Ilion2 (talk) 12:21, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - has played in two successive finals of New Zealand's top professional domestic rugby competitions (i.e. one of the world's top competitions). Would someone who has played at the superbowl or world series baseball be deleted? The current poor state of the article is not grounds for deletion. Nomionators are supposed to check for missing sources before proposing. dramatic (talk) 00:42, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
