Is the field narrower than the NRL/RL field?

Edit with A.I assistance:

Yes, the playing surface at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas is both narrower and shorter than a standard NRL field.
  • Width: The field is approximately 63.1 metres wide, which is narrower than the standard 68-metre NRL field.
  • Length: The field is 94.5 metres from try line to try line (100 yards), shorter than the standard 100-metre NRL field.
  • In-goal Areas: These are reduced to 6.4 metres deep, compared to the standard 10-metre deep in-goal areas.
In total, the Las Vegas field is about 5 metres narrower and 6 metres shorter than a regulation NRL pitch.

I heard that Lachie Galvin is so fast after his off season sprint training that he makes Usain Bolt look like Jake Trbojevic.

Shows perfectly that these SL sides can produce a sucker punch , but would be eaten alive in the year long pressure of the NRL
That's always been the difference between the Super League and the NRL, the depth of the Super League is atrocious at the bottom.

The top 4 in the Super League can give you a game on their day, the bottom half would get 50+ every week in the NRL and would be lucky to win a game.

What has happened to HKR in SL this year? They showed up for the WCC, but their club level performances have been dire so far.
