There are multiple "George Blackmores" who played cricket, but the only reference I can find to this specific individual is the cited reference at Cricket Archive. The coverage there is very superficial, so to me he does not satisfy the basic criteria of WP:PEOPLE: "If the depth of coverage is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be needed to prove notability; trivial coverage... may not be sufficient."

- Keep per WP:CRIN, as the player played first class cricket. I accept the argument put forward by the nominator, however with Cricket Archive (and CricInfo) entries, and a first class cricket career, he passes cricket player notability guidelines which satisfies me. SGGH 18:01, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:CRIN/WP:ATH. Has played at the highest level and therefore passes the notability criteria. The content is all verifiable through the provided source. —SpacemanSpiff 18:03, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
