We've officially said we want to be there according to Dan in the wail.


Thoughts? I may be tempted by another vegas trip having been twice before.  Crazy place

Would love for us to be selected. Been once before and would definitely go back for FC. 

Credit card would have to get smashed but you only live once, don't ya.

I'm already booked to go back to Vegas for last week of October so may have to see if I can talk the better half in to changing the booking to go earlier or dig deep in to the lunch money and book another trip 

I doubt it will be us.  I expect they will want to have a big club and a smaller club each year so wigan v wire this year, leeds v rovers next and then maybe us v saints the year after

couldn't we take the magic weekend there instead of just oicking and choosing who goes?

Seems to of been quite a sudden change in tune from the club, we was (correctly) adamant over the pre-season that we were way off going to Vegas, there has been a serious uplift in confidence across the club in a pretty short period.


FWIW, I think us throwing our hat into the ring at last minute could lead to a sudden change of heart from the RFL's commercial board, a Hull derby in Vegas is surely something they can't miss out on?

We can't even stage a sell-out one in Hull 

There was loads of Hull fans in Vegas for the first NRL games last year , Vegas not my cup of tea but if Hull got picked , I'd have to go again .
Me and the misses idea of away games differs by 4000 miles !!

I'm not convinced that a Hull derby would be much of a draw to travel for neutral fans.

At $25 dollars a can , You probably wouldn't see many from the east side throwing them .

I agree it's of interest to people in this city only. SKY would want viewers from Lancashire and West Yorkshire tuning in. 

Also the thought of being stuck on a 10 hour flight with some of their fanbase is a horror.


Selfishly I'd like to see us there but not sure it's the best idea right now while we are still improving as a team. You lose a week of training while there then a few other days lost for photo ops and press conferences in the build up.
