"The week also garnered massive media exposure, while tickets for the matches were purchased in 31 countries around the world. "

Surely this was fans in Australia using VPN's?

Massive shift between last year and this year in terms of clubs being interested in going there. It sounds a bit like last four clubs standing in terms of the line ups for next year. I think teams will be given the tap on the shoulder to go by 2026.....which is not great.

So Roosters, Souths, Broncos and Manly went to Las Vegas. In their current ladder positions:

4. Roosters 22 pts from 16 games
9. Manly 19 pts from 15
10. Broncos 18 pts from 15
14. Souths 16 pts from 14

The NRL and AFL Grand Finals get people visiting from that many (or more) countries each year, it's not really that big of a stretch. Also considering tickets are the same price globally, what benefit is there for users to pretend to be in a really obscure country? In fact you're more likely to get blocked by Ticketmaster for that.

The only real surprise there is Broncos IMO

Souths a little lower than expected but they have had a huge injury toll.

Reynolds has been out for a while, and Walsh has missed a few games. Additionally, Flegler and Farnworth went to the Dolphins. But i still think they will make the eight.
