Las Vegas: The Canberra Raiders are fuming internally over their late-night scuffle, likened to an inflatable bat being used in a biff on a lift.
It was a real footy moment that had players feeling like they were trying to share a bed, and no one really gives a damn.
According to the latest report from canberratimes.com.au, the team had to deal with the aftermath by forcing Hudson Young and Morgan Smithies into a press conference as fast as a winger running down the sideline.
It was like a slap in the face for the NRL, who were hoping for a smooth start to their season-opening extravaganza in Vegas.
But amidst all the chaos, is anyone even talking about two Aussie lads throwing punches in a lift in Sin City? It seems like the Raiders' antics barely made a ripple in the sports scene over there.
Meanwhile, the Las Vegas Raiders are making headlines for their possible roster changes in the NFL, stealing the spotlight from the NRL drama.
And with the Philadelphia Eagles hitting the Strip to celebrate their Super Bowl win, it's clear that the sports world in Vegas is focused on bigger things than a couple of footy players getting rowdy.
