Keep - The last Afd had more than half the votes going to keep the article, with the overall result deemed no consensus. He hasn't lost any notoriety since the previous nomination, but has since been selected in Australia's U17 World Cup squad. A quick Google search of his name shows countless credible sources as to his career thus far, which has him passing the GNG with ease. I reaffirm that he hasn't lost notoriety within the last 6 months, but has rather gained it. - J man708 (talk) 17:45, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - This article is about a 17 year football player who is eligible to represent multiple countries has gathered some media attention in Australia due to his perceived immense talent and potential to one day become a star player in Australian football. We so rarely have such a talent that when a player from Australia starts attracting interest from Barcelona everyone in Australian football circles starts going a little overboard and that's why we have seen a number of articles about the lad, everyone gets excited. Hypothetically if his footballing career ended today; would we keep his article? I would say no. Up to now all he has done is played for a few youth team in Europe... there's certainly nothing notable about that. Simione001 (talk) 00:04, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Yes, he is a 'wonderkid' and yes there is a fair amount of media coverage. He does, however, clearly fail WP:NFOOTY and we do not have a crystal ball so there is no guarantee that he will definitely play a professional game in the future. We shouldn't really have articles on exciting footballers of the future unless there is an extreme amount of coverage from reliable sources. Spiderone 12:43, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Obviously doesn't meet WP:NFOOTY, but just as obviously meets WP:GNG. Loads of coverage. Doctorhawkes (talk) 10:53, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Simply not enough significant, non-WP:ROUTINE coverage. Giant Snowman 18:05, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - meets WP:GNG with significant coverage over the years [1] [2] [3]. Nfitz (talk) 03:33, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - per NFITZ, has received national level coverage over a number of years. Substantial articles were written about him ten years ago and continue to be written. Seems therefore to meet GNG, making NFOOTY irrelevant. Additional sources discussing the player ar significant length can be found here:

Interview - admittedly a blog, but no indication it is unreliable, particularly with the amount of newspaper coverage the player has generated.
Newspaper article from 2014

I see no real difference between the player here and someone like Sonny Pike, there's plenty of coverage of a non-routine nature out there. Fenix down (talk) 08:33, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
