Andy Last admits there’s a ‘little bit of disappointment’ in Hull FC’s decision to avoid Las Vegas, though he fully embraces the club’s rationale. The Black and Whites prioritized performance over stateside travel, opting instead to focus on building a strong 2027 squad under interim coach Steve McNamara. Last, who will serve as McNamara’s assistant coach following his tenure, emphasized the importance of investing funds back into the first team rather than redirecting wealth to Las Vegas. He highlighted the significance of the event at Vegas, which will host Leigh Leopards at Allegiant Stadium, calling it a “great opportunity” for fans and players alike. Personally, I think investing in development remains crucial for a competitive league, especially when considering the potential of emerging talent. What many overlook is that such decisions can drive both local and national success. From my perspective, this reflects a broader trend toward strategic resource allocation and long-term growth.
