Footy commentator Andrew Voss has shared his thoughts on the necessary changes for the 2026 Las Vegas round and proposed a specific adjustment to the women’s fixture following the Jillaroos’ impressive 90-4 victory over England. This weekend’s rugby league extravaganza in Sin City was a roaring success with 45,209 fans attending the Allegiant Stadium. After Australia’s commanding performance, there were discussions about the opponents the Jillaroos should face in 2026, with suggestions from fans and pundits indicating a potential matchup against New Zealand. Footy bosses Peter V’landys and Andrew Abdo are now assessing opportunities on how best to showcase the women’s game. Australian Rugby League Commission chairman V’landys has also raised concerns that playing four matches in one day was perhaps too much. During the event at Allegiant Stadium, restrictions on exiting and re-entering the venue resulted in a lengthy nine-hour affair, prompting consideration for smoother proceedings in the future. V’landys believes that the schedule should be reduced to three matches but that has left some questioning what games should be played. Voss, meanwhile, offered his take on the 2026 schedule, claiming that a World Club Challenge match or a women’s State of Origin clash should be played instead of the Jillaroos. ‘Whatever we consider for 2026 and beyond, it must be a minimum of three games or a maximum of four matches at Allegiant Stadium,’ Voss told SEN1170 Breakfast. ‘I would have two NRL games, a Super League game and either the World Club Challenge or a women’s game. ‘If the NRL are hellbent on including the women’s game, then it can only be one contest and that must be NSW v Queensland Women’s Origin.’ Speaking on claims that the Jillaroos could play New Zealand, Voss said: ‘At the last Rugby League World Cup, I saw Australia beat New Zealand by 50 in the final at Old Trafford so don’t think you are going to get a close game there. ‘The Super League is now here to stay. The English involvement has been a huge plus this year to last. I would have Wigan play St Helens next year. Two very strong clubs. ‘Two NRL games is obviously a must so therefore, four NRL clubs must be here.’ V’landys also appeared to rubbish claims that the women’s fixture should be removed from the schedule, stating: ‘I’m the biggest supporter of the women’s game, so I don’t want to discount them. ‘Australia were just too strong. It just shows that when you have a professionally run semi-professional rugby league competition, you’re gonna be that far ahead of anyone else in the world, and we have the best NRLW competition. ‘It’s professionally run, the women have reached a level at this stage of their evolution that I’ve never seen. ‘They are so far advanced, they’re so good, so skilful, they’re so brilliant that the poor old English never had a chance. ‘In saying that, I was proud to show them off, to show how good our women are, the entertainers they are. They didn’t let me down. ‘Unfortunately, the English competition isn’t NRLW and it will take some time to catch up to us.’ NRL CEO Andrew Abdo said: ‘International football for the women’s game is important and we need to think about how we help other countries with their development and growth. ‘We will have a review and think about what the right opportunities are to showcase the women’s game to an international audience. ‘We’ll review it and get feedback from our customers and partners. It was a long day but a great festival.’ With league bosses hopeful the festival will only grow the game’s exposure further afield, Voss added that hosting a ‘World Title’-type game akin to the World Club Challenge could peak greater viewership. ‘I’d still have the World Club Challenge in the mix because to an American audience, a world title being up for grabs would garner more attention. We are giving Vegas a world decider,’ Voss continued. ‘A trophy is being won and that’s lacking in the current games that we’ve got. ‘We don’t know the Premiers until October so an announcement would have to come after the Super League Grand Final. ‘You would certainly put teams on alert.’
