Salt Lake City? LMAO

Let's not pretend we aren't relying on 10s of thousands of Aussies travelling or Aussie/English expats for this.

Vegas is the right place for this, let it grow there.

Indeed. It was the people at Fox who said Las Vegas was the right place for it when the NRL were looking at west coast venues like LA for this year's event? They brought in people who are knowledgeable in the US sports market to give their opinions to the NRL - and they were near on unanimous it was Vegas. That's why the NRL went there.

They can send Hannant out as the face of rugby league

He can bring along the Manly 7 to spread the good word. If they can convince the Mormons they're on a mission from God, rugby league will spread all the way across the Bible belt of America.

But leave Vegas out of it. If they get an inkling rugby league is being played in Sin City...

For now, absolutely. But the whole point of creating event status is eventually its big enough to be success anywhere.

It’s like people don’t even read the discussion and just jump in blind

if was based on Vegas being such a success that other cities would bid for it down the track
