Sydney Roosters boss Nick Politis faced a tough decision after Greece secured a last-minute spot in the NRL Nines tournament in Las Vegas.
The Roosters heavyweight, along with board members like Mark Bouris and CEO Joe Kelly, were on hand at Silverbowl Park to watch the debut of their rebranded Los Angeles Roosters squad.
Greece and the United States found themselves in Sin City for a two-game showdown, with both teams stepping in late after their initial Test match was called off due to some shady character's light pole escapade.
It was a strange turn of events, but the Roosters saw an opportunity and decided to dive into the American scene after participating in last year's Vegas rugby league extravaganza at Allegiant Stadium.
The LA Roosters are set to make waves in the USARL competition this season, with a West Coast Academy in place and sponsorship of the USA Hawks.
Rumors are swirling that the upcoming Test series could be dubbed the Nick Politis Cup, given his support for both nations in their rugby league pursuits.
