Despite the setback, Burgess remains upbeat about his chances of joining the team for the Betfred Super League match against Wigan Warriors at the Allegiant Stadium.

The visa application is in for review and it's out of my hands for now.
We'll wait and see what unfolds in the next 24 hours."
Despite the visa hiccup, Burgess is determined to join his team in Las Vegas for this momentous occasion.
With live coverage on Sky Sports, the match promises to be a highlight of the Super League calendar.
