Fails WP:NRU. Plays for a team in appropriate league, but has not played in a championship series, which is criteria for rugby union notability. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 12:55, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Player has played 3 Pro14 games, as new itsrugby.co.uk reference states, have edited game statistics. Harriesss 14:00, 12 July 2018 (BST)

@Harriesss: I'm unfamiliar with the terminology used here. Is a "rugby competition" just a name for the league itself? If so I will withdraw this nomination. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 13:16, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Etzedek24: A "rugby competition" is basically a league or cup tournament. The Pro14 is the professional league for Irish, Scottish, Welsh clubs, while two Italian and South African teams play in the league as well. Therefore the article meets the criteria for WP:NRU. I only tend to create pages for Welsh players when they have made their Pro14 debut. Harriesss 14:23, 12 July 2018 (BST)

@Harriesss: I gotcha. I apologize for being an ignorant American! I will withdraw this nomination, thanks for clarifying. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 13:26, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
