What close to capacity with NSW & QLD fans going over to Vegas (which we have all done) & going to a great stadium.

I mean I hate Rugby League, like most Aussies, but even I would go to these games as the stadium is awesome & Vegas is great also.

Thats right Petey
you would , in just its 2nd year it is already an iconic event for sports fans , not just RL ones.. not just Australians.
The NRL has zoned in on every detail required to present a week long world class event mainly for its fans , but all are welcome & they have delivered in spades.

This is the modern NRL , its not enough to have a vision . you need the people to deliver it.
This is why the NRL are the innovators in this country , why they now set the agenda

& all others follow
it is why it is the sport of preference for most aussies :cool:

It's been a way bigger success than any of AFLs international efforts. First game got a bigger crowd than ever single overseas AFL exhibition match ever attempted.

AFL China was a complete embarrassment and AFL in NZ also failed with future games cancelled early due to such a fall in attendances.

The NRL is showing the AFL how something is done at a professional level.
