Super League involvement in Rugby League Las Vegas cannot be considered a success if it is a one-off, Wigan Warriors boss Matt Peet has said.

Wigan beat Warrington Wolves 48-24 in a thriller at Allegiant Stadium on Saturday in the first Super League fixture to be played in the United States.

The game was the first of four to take place at the stadium, including two NRL fixtures and England Women’s heavy defeat by Australia Women, after the event’s debut in 2024.

“I’ve seen some of the data on the engagements and the publicity we received and it seemed to reflect positively the vibe and energy around Las Vegas, which certainly felt like a success,” Peet told BBC Radio Manchester.

“But ultimately we have to build on it now as a competition and as a club.

“If it ends up being a one-off, it cannot be deemed a success. I think it’s about what happens next.”
