[edit] Hungary national rugby league team

Hungary national rugby league team (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This page is believed to be a hoax and no sources or reports have been presented to prove otherwise. The opening line is blatantly untrue as the qualification process for the 2008 World Cup has started and does not involve Hungary. The page contradicts itself on if the team played Slovakia or Serbia in round one and says that it will play Israel in round two. While Serbia does play rugby league I am not aware of Slovakia or Israel ever having a national team. Louie Parker is not a member of the New Zealand Warriors. No other facts or statements check out.

  • Delete unless author can provide proof, can't find anything about it, which is unexpected for a team that's meant to be starting in 2008 Guycalledryan 09:53, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Most of these players appear to be Asutralian (or at least Australian residents), as the majority appear to be from National Rugby League teams. Unless sources can be provided by those seeking to keep the article, I'm going to have to call this an unsorced, unverifiable fantasy team and move for its deletion. -- saberwyn 12:20, 16 May 2007

What are you talking about. If you take a look at the team, most of the players have Hungarian names and none play in the NRL. 1 source that this is real is hstrail-bwilson.homestead.com it says everywhere that the Hungarian side exsists. (UTC)

The team names were changed in this edit, two days after I made the above comment. 'Facts' appear to be to malleable to be real. -- saberwyn 11:09, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
    • Additional: A very brief and very crude Google search comes up with Wikipedia in first place and nothing else of worth in the first page of results. However, they do appear to have a rugby union team. -- saberwyn 12:24, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
      • FYI Hungary's Union team already has a page.Mattlore 22:07, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
        • ...not that that has any relevance, since it's a completely different sport. Their soccer team has a page, too, and that's just as unconnected. Grutness...wha? 01:44, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
  • OK to delete this article. It supplies no basis of any facts and is questionably notable. Decoratrix 16:39, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
  • The creator of the page User:Danman2007 has twice removed the tags on the page. Is there anything we can do to stop this or do we just keep replacing them once removed? Mattlore 00:31, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
