'''Subject is non-notable, has no sources at all. Fails WP:GNG, WP:NRIVALRY and WP:EVENT.''' Macktheknifeau (talk) 18:18, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

Deletion Reasoning: This article has 0 references and has had no references since at least January 2011. This is a regular season fixture that just happens to have two teams from the same state. It fails WP:GNG and WP:EVENT and should be deleted. Macktheknifeau (talk) 18:18, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep this is a clearly notable event that has been WP:POINTily nominated along with a bunch of other AFL rivalry games in retaliation to a not yet played association football game being deleted - Sydney Derby (A-League)- The-Pope (talk) 01:01, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment - the article as it stands does not show evidence that it meets WP:NRIVALRY or WP:GNG as it does not address the importance of the rivalry or show any independent coverage of the rivalry in reliable sources. Hack (talk) 01:21, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
