NRL clubs face challenges keeping players safe in Vegas with booze, gambling, and other temptations.
LAS VEGAS: It's perhaps the most talked about challenge for club football departments when the NRL gives them a ticket to Sin City: how do we do this and get home in one piece?
The Vegas strip is a dizzying cocktail of booze, gambling, showgirls and any number of booby traps for young men (and women) to fall into.
Big money is spent on security and months goes into detailed planning in an effort to keep players away from trouble but in a place like Vegas trouble tends to come knocking one way or another.
