Good observation, Kath.
I've been wondering whether to point out this detail -- the phrase "good
article review" has been used a little inaccurately in this discussion.
A "good article assessment" is what Laura is currently going through, as
distinct from a "good article review" (what Kath has just pointed out)
which is essentially an appeal of an assessment that is believed to be
problematic.
Good Article Review is an option *after* the assessment and related
discussion is complete. It's sort of like appealing a court decision;
you identify the specific thing that you think was done wrong, and
somebody will take that into consideration.
While the assessment's still underway though, I think the approach Laura
is taking (seeking out additional perspectives) is the right way to go
about it.

I don't really know how this all works, but I noticed in the
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Netball_in_the_Cook_Islands/GA1 page
you linked it mentioned this:
"If you feel that this assessment was in error, you may take it to
WP:GAR <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GAR>. "
is that an option? do/could they have another person review it who
might have more ideas to help you get it to GA? (or if not this link
is there another)
Back to my reviewer, I'd rather he had failed
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Netball/GA1 the article like the
reviewer failed
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Netball_in_the_Cook_Islands/GA1
because while the Cook Islands one was a quick fail, the reviewer
offered clear examples, good feedback than can be worked towards
improving based on the examples, didn't drag it out and followed
the procedure.
It would be of great assistance if you could actually step in to
that discussion, examine what we said and actually help improve
the article to get it to good status based on the criteria that
the reviewer provided.
