A contest prod. The player fails
WP:RLN as hasn't played in a Super League match and an international for Canada is not notable enough to meet the guidelines.

Keep - Canadian international playing in a professional team, albeit in a semi-pro league this season.

Keep actually does pass
WP:RLN per #1, actually says that players who have played nationally for Argentina, Australia, Canada, England, Fiji, France, Ireland, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Romania, Samoa, Scotland, South Africa, Tonga, United States, and Wales are considered notable.

Hi Alessandro, I think you have mistakenly quoted the rugby union guidelines as RLN #1 states "1.Have appeared in at least one match at a Rugby League World Cup tournament, Rugby League Four Nations tournament, Pacific Cup or Rugby League European Cup" - Canada has never been in any of these tournaments.

@
Shawn in Montreal: and @
AlessandroTiandelli333:, don't get confused between league and union! I'm impressed he played for
Eastern Suburbs Tigers, but did he make the senior (i.e., adult) team?
He seems to have played colts (juniors). Same with the claim he played for Canada – he's listed as selected, but there's no record I could find of him actually playing for Canada. Also, the Tom Dempsey who played for Easts is linked in Facebook to a profile of a Tom Dempsey who names Brisbane, Australia as his home town, so I'm not sure it's even the same person. I'm leaning towards delete as I could easily find answers to these questions if he was notable.

DeleteWP:TOOSOON for an article. If @
Fleets: would like this moved into his userspace until the player passes RLN/GNG, I'd support that. – skemcraig⊗ 21:05, 21 February 2017 (UTC)reply

Delete Fails
WP:RLN and
WP:GNG. Re-create if and when he plays in the Super League.
