Somebody floats this notion every now and then.

NRL chief Andrew Abdo openly spoke about the Australian Rugby League Commission (ARLC) taking a stake in Super League.

“I recommended this four or five years ago because it’s a perfect gap between us and the US and I have no doubt that we will see a World Club Challenge in Vegas as part of a season-opening weekend
