Spent 6 months downtown, 1 in ottawa and 3 in pickering. 2010-15 ish. Great place. Lucky enough to get involved with the wolverines and the guys that originally got the wolfpack up and running
You and I might have crossed paths. I also spent a bunch of time in Ottawa. Spent roughly 4 months there between 2010 and 2012.

I wonder if they'll get a 2 week break after their first game?
Are they doing it round one? I think they'd have to give them buys but that would mean 5 teams getting a break in round two. Not ideal.

Don't really see the value in doing it.

I was thinking more they play the two games on a standalone weekend, play the rest of round 1 the next week... only guessing though.

Happy to play any of the Vegas 4 the following week.

I'm so happy for the Roosters .
They always put in the best submissions ( like the original 4 team womans conp ).
Nick sumed it up when joking

Roosters wear the Red White Blue American flag colours.so should be there.

Probably play in a USA Flag SPECIAL one off Strip ?

A big advantage for the first 4 teams to gain a foothold and sell ongoing merchandising I feel

Ongoing? Its Vegas, once the NRL show is over people will move on to the next show.

Let them have it. Bloody hard enough to win a comp playing in Sydney most wks, **** factoring in a trip to Vegas & all the BS that will entail.
