RL:NRL announces Las Vegas teams for 2027

Wests Tigers, Parramatta, Gold Coast and Melbourne will be the four teams that play in the NRL's season-opening matches in Las Vegas next year.

The Tigers will meet the Storm, with the Eels to face the Titans on Sunday February 28 (AEDT) at Allegiant Stadium for the penultimate year of the league's Vegas contract.

Heading into round 12 of this NRL season, none of the four participating teams are in the top eight, with only the Tigers sitting higher than 13th.

The quartet's selection leaves the Dolphins as the only team participating in this year's premiership that have not yet taken part in the Vegas showpiece event.

Expansion teams Perth and PNG would also have entered the competition in time for the final year of the NRL's deal in 2028.
