Lightbulb moment in Vegas with neon lights, LEDs, and NRL fan event at iconic Fremont Street.
Las Vegas: It's taken five days, but this was a lightbulb moment.
Which is ironic given the number of lights, neon signs and LEDs that keep Las Vegas lit up like a Christmas tree 24-7-365.
It's hard not to be impressed by the scenes at the NRL fan event at the iconic Fremont Street in downtown Vegas on Friday, where up to 10,000 rugby league fans crammed into the covered street.
Former Dally M Medallist Todd Carney joins former NRL players in NRL Vegas Nines tournament on Saturday.
Former Dally M Medallist Todd Carney is gearing up for the NRL Vegas Nines tournament, alongside a couple of other former NRL players.
Set to take the field on Saturday (AEDT time), Carney will be joined by Papua New Guinea international Kyle Laybutt and former Gold Coast Titans and Parramatta Eels forward Cody Nelson.
The team also boasts Italian international Gavin Hiscox and former North Queensland Cowboys prospects Carlin Anderson and Michael Bell.
Having last graced the NRL in 2014, Carney has a solid track record, having played over 165 first-grade matches for the Canberra Raiders, Sydney Roosters, and Cronulla Sharks, while also earning caps for Australia and the NSW Blues during the 2012 State of Origin series.
Nine's tipping experts split on Penrith vs. Cronulla clash, with bookies favoring Panthers but panel divided.
Nine's panel of tipping experts appear to be split on Sunday's clash between Penrith and Cronulla despite bookies heavily favouring the four-time reigning premiers.
The Panthers have been the best team in the NRL for almost half a decade, and are about $1.67 with TAB to beat the Sharks and get their 2025 season off to a winning start in Las Vegas.
But Nine's tipsters including Paul Gallen and Ruan Sims reckon the Shire men can spring an upset in Sin City.
