IMO it seems the NRL have dropped the ball on this
We live in a world where athletes earn upwards of millions of dollars a season, in some cases 100mil +
Australian sports seem to be so behind compared to the rest of the world
The NRL talks about growing the game but this is the exact thing that will dwarf it
Many countries will be watching Rugby 360, UAE, Tokyo, America etc
If our players go there and excel, earn their money and come back for a few seasons, guess what? The international crowd will tune into our game and perhaps it might just generate interest and grow the game into an international game the way the NRL has been vying for it to
Taking 2 games to vegas, forcing it down everyones throat isn’t the way to do it
