  • Keep. I had not heard of this before, but the article has a couple of sources and there seem to be more available at GNews about this "popular schoolyard game" in NZ. Article needs expansion to mention the so-called "World Series" [1][2][3][4][5] --Arxiloxos (talk) 19:41, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but only just. The game is covered very occasionally in national media and appears to be solely related to a prostrate cancer fund raiser called Movember. Has been run for a number of years. NealeFamily (talk) 23:35, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep While it isn't known by many people outside of New Zealand, it sounds interesting, and could easily find it's way to a larger audience. I don't see any substantial reason to get rid of it. Kaoskitteh (talk) 17:28, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete there is no in depth coverage here. There are some passing mentions, mainly in association with some charity events and a beer branding exercise. The presence of content on scoop (a press release site) clearly indicates marketting effort being expended to generate hype. Stuartyeates (talk) 01:23, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
