The Las Vegas Thread

[Mother Nature's Son]

WTF is Vlandy's thinking?
Why invite the vile and POS Trump, a convicted felon and rapist to the game when, (a) he won't come thank god and (b) you are dividing not only any fanbase in the US but also in Australia?

What a stupid, stupid thing to do.

Not going to happen, there`s nothing in it for him, but it`d sure get some attention even he mentioned it.
Interestingly enough in the U.S. there does seem to be a rather disdainful attitude to NFL amongst certain demographics not unlike what League faces here, it`s just America is so damn big and wealthy it doesn`t really matter. We`ve partnered with UFC over there already, I don`t think attempting to attract some of Trump`s base is going to make things any worse.

Trump fan or not, that would be absolutely massive for NRL in attracting attention. I doubt it could be pulled off but if the president of the United States is at the game it would be a huge win for PVL and the game.

V’landys wants US President Donald Trump in Las Vegas for NRL season opener

The ARL Commission chairman will be leaning on some of his contacts to try to lure the new US president to attend the NRL action in Las Vegas in March.

www.smh.com.au

I'm not sure this is a good idea.

Democrat supporters are such bozos that they will refuse to even look at the sport now if Trump says anything positive about it.

Then again, the republican supporters might give it a shot. And seeing how easily Trump won the election pvl is riding the better horse.

"I attended a closed training session. I ran the ball. They said they had never seen a more powerful skilled runner of the ball, with ball handling rivalling the best players, and the biggest, most effective tackle they'd ever seen. They said I probably would have been the best player ever if I had played in the league."
- Donald Trump, probably.

 

[Marlins]

Trump goes to NFL, UFC, and other sporting events. Both sides of the coin still follow. Given his massive media presence and the circus that surrounds him, having him attend NRL Vegas would only increase the exposure with the potential of Taking the game to millions of Americans. Love him, hate him, don’t give a shit about him, it really doesn’t matter.
Low risk insane potential. And the opportunity to hear him say Rugba League

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I'm sure attending a rugby league game is high on the list of any US president's priorities.

 

[King hit]

Vlandys should go on the Joe Rogan experience and promote the f**k out of the game to millions of listeners. It helped the Don win the election so why not try it there.

Trump already in Vegas so he doesn't miss out on a good seat for the game. The Donald is a huge NRL fan.
