  • Keep. Meets WP:NSPORT Generally acceptable standards "participated in a major international amateur or professional competition at the highest level such as the Olympics". In this case, Cunnane played for the Ireland national Australian rules football team, which is the highest level of competition for Australian rules football. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:23, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

  • 'Keep: Per BrownHairedGirl, he appears to meet WP:NSPORT . The tournament he participated in is the major international event for the sport. (Australia is prohibited from participating in it.) The competition does get media attention, and Cunnane has received mentions as a result. See [http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2002/08/23/1030052975335.html The Age]. He's also been mentioned on the AFL's website [http://www.afl.com.au/More/PlayAFL/International/InternationalCup2011/IC11IrishSquad/tabid/18013/Default.aspx here] and [http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/118997/default.aspx here]. --LauraHale (talk) 05:09, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete the AFL International Cup is purely a development league played by amateurs and is a much lower level of play than most suburban leagues, it is nowhere near the "highest level of competition for Australian rules football". None of the references provided are significant coverage in major independent reliable sources. The-Pope (talk) 15:36, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
