Any of you guys actually planning on going to Vegas? That'd be a pretty pricey business, I imagine. But I have to say, at a time when too many in England are muttering about the game going semi-pro on a few years, doom and gloom, and all this, it's good to see a bit of ambition.

Vegas is wild. Would be amazing trip.

Just better have some $$.

Bloody stupid rule.

It seems like they're trying to avoid injuries from the long kick offs, not dissimilar to the NFL.

Not sure that's needed. The game is fine as it is.

Ahh good old NRL couldn't organise a root In a brothel confusion over visas for the USA game

VLandys is so bad for the game. Absolute snake oil salesman.

Damn, still a week away.

February always feels like sporting purgatory.

Thankfully on 28 days most years.

Might look like it.

But I am happy with what he does for the game.

The whole Vegas thing is great.

It looks like it, because it is.

Even the Vegas thing has been so poorly planned. They had players down last week trying to get visas sorted. Less than a month out.

LoL

Slow news day.

LoL

Slow news day.

It's not a huge deal but it's absolutely punishable.

The two leaders of your club acting like absolute ****, 3 weeks before the start of the season. Absolutely bizarre behaviour.

2024 Jerseys....

Notes....

Sea Eagles have a new logo altogether, and a new away jersey.

Warriors a new away jersey.

Dragons a slightly different alternate (no away)

Storm have an altogether new home and away....i like what they've done.

Sharks have made the black version their away and no alternate.

Broncos a new away, looks really nice.

Rabbitohs I think have removed the side stripes from the home and away. Now just a black rabbit, collar and sleeve cuffs for home, and white for those for away. Looks much better if theres no side stripe at all.

Titans looks a little different maybe.

Eels have a cleaner home jersey, looks much nicer.

 

[Jatz]

Ours stayed pretty well the same, with that god awful green box on the front of it.

Paps back in style but Bulldogs finish too strong for Storm

Star fullback Ryan Papenhuyzen made a stunning return for the Storm in the opening match of the NRL Pre-season Challenge but the Bulldogs finished too strong to win 24-12.
