NPOV article on an AFL player. But google instead turns up such things as Martin Pike industries, and a data management expert, so I'm not sure how notable this guy actually is. Radiant! 10:12, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep -- In need of a serious NPOV edit. His official AFL web page is here.

- Delete, just under the bar of notability, POV fancruft. Megan1967 23:45, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I have rewritten article to remove POV and establish notability. Pike has played in four premiership teams in the AFL including three with the Brisbane Lions in 2001, 2002 and 2003. He has played in 238 AFL games including 24 finals and has played State of Origin for South Australia. Definitely meets my notability requirements for AFL players. Capitalistroadster
