Haha we are going to vegas because we have a connection in a betting company owned by a vegas outfit.
So Rugba League under Vlandys
Your against Toulouse, Papua new Guinea, new Zealand and surprise surprise Vegas... among others.
Basically anywhere outside of Hull and Perth.
Your self serving opinions are breathtaking.

We talking about Mike Cannon-Brookes?

He spends most of his time worrying about climate change and software development, yet because he's a billionaire and put some money into sports among a million other investments, he's now a person with "decent knowledge"?

As opposed to a random anon on an internet forum?

ARLC chairman's other job relies exclusively on gambling

Storm Chairman up until a few months ago owned a betting company.

Then of course you have Pointsbet who have a sponsorship of the game, Trying to build the brand.

As I said plenty that know gambling, I don't doubt their data. I do doubt whether enough in the US will actually bet on RL

Are people still complaining that the “season opener “ is not on FTA … even though the game 2 hours later is?
I think fox has the round exclusive

there are no other games played than these two

it’s effectively round zero not round one

then they get a bye for round one

If you have a game in NZ on Sunday starting 12.00 , this would equal
10.00 am game Sydney AND ( get to watch NRL all day)
Saturday Night game East Coast/New York at 7.00pm.
If the next game is 12.00 Sydney or 2pm NZ this would mean
a Saturday night game East coast/NY at 9.00pm
Note all American games would be 3 hours earlier on the west coat (Saturday)
ie New Zealand game kickoff local time SUNDAY 12.00 (NZ) equals 10.00am Sydney
AND New York 7.00pm and LA 4.00pm Saturday.
So we could make Saturday night NRL in America with this two games AND it's better on the West Coast ie LA/SF
The NRL should take ONE home game off every team so as to organize these types of outcomes.

Well done

Any Updates how ticket sales are going?
So far I'm hearing the double header have only been snapped by Aussie expats from the US and fans from OZ. So the question is, are we going to attract Americans to our game? Or are they only interested in sports that are only American? Maybe they should get off their fat ass and watch a real man's sport with no helmets and no body armour. I'm sure if they did their eyes will pop out, how tough our game is.

Loads of English too

stadium members and the nfl team should get some of their fans

it’s early days yet anyway

wait till the players get over there in the weeks before and go on the local talk shows

I just want it to be successful, or else we're going to get backlash from everywhere, and you know what I mean by that.
