NRL: Wayne Bennett has made a cheeky dig at reports Souths will sign Brandon Smith, while his opponents Melbourne provided a positive update on Cameron Munster.
The Storm has officially pulled out of the race for a spot in Las Vegas next year despite being considered one of the favourites to open the 2025 season in America.
It’s still unclear which clubs will be chosen to play there next year, with the Panthers, Raiders, Sharks and Warriors mentioned as teams leading the race to play in Vegas, with the NRL expected to make a decision soon to give fans enough time to start planning their trips. The Storm remains open to playing there in the future but will focus for now on Fiji having played a trial game against the Knights there a few months ago.
“While we are supportive of the NRL’s vision for growth and expansion internationally, the time is not right for Storm to head to Vegas in 2025.
