The NRL is currently considering London as a potential host for the season opener once their current contract with Las Vegas expires in 2028.

The league had initially signed a five-year deal to host season opening games in Las Vegas.

The second year of the deal saw the inclusion of two English Super League teams, as well as a women's international match.

The games in Las Vegas saw the Penrith Panthers and the Canberra Raiders emerging victorious, with larger crowds and increased TV ratings compared to the previous year.
