[edit] Helensvale hogs

This appears to be a non-notable rugby club from Australia. I added the {{notability}} tag about a month ago, and the article has been increasingly vandalized since. I'm bringing it here for discussion, on the off chance someone doesn't feel this is a textbook A7 speedy. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 06:18, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

• Comment This team plays in the Gold Coast and District Rugby Union and are part of a third tier rugby union competition in Queensland. The players are probably a mix of semi-professionals and amateurs. The Gold Coast has a side in the Brisbane Premier Rugby and Brisbane Rugby Union in the Queensland Rugby Union. If we had an article on that competition, we could have a paragraph in it about the Helensvale Hogs. They are probably not notable enough to warrant an article on their own account. Six mentions in the Australian media all from the Gold Coast Bulletin. Capitalistroadster 07:37, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per CSD A7 (specifically, club), no assertion of notability. I live 10km away and have never heard of them, and know of many other smaller local clubs in the QRU (e.g. Burleigh Bears). Jammo (SM247) 11:50, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
