While meeting the President of the United States was a personal highlight, the ARLC chairman said a night of serious networking will help deliver a multimillion-dollar windfall for the NRL.
Peter V’landys rubbed shoulders with the most powerful man on the planet on a night he believes will help deliver a multimillion-dollar financial windfall for the NRL.
While meeting Biden was a personal highlight, V’landys said a night of serious networking will have a significant impact on the future of rugby league. “We worked out that if all this goes to plan, it has the potential to generate hundreds of millions for rugby league. Not tens of millions – hundreds of millions.”The NRL has a five-year plan to crack the US market, with plans to play double-headers in Las Vegas over that period.
“The first year we are learning as much as we can to implement it right. If you’re going to be a success it’s all the work you do beforehand. Meeting all these people here tonight has exceptional value. If we’re successful, it opens the door for all Australian sports. If you have 340 million customers, why wouldn’t you attack it?”
