Celebrities, rappers, comedians, reality TV stars, NRL elite: Inside the all-night Las Vegas after-party

Rugby league players were finally able to let their hair down following the Las Vegas extravaganza, with the likes of Sam Burgess and the Jillaroos partying with high-profile DJs. Watch the videos.

Warrington coach Sam Burgess has helped bury the bitter disappointment of a devastating loss to Wigan by sharing the stage with Australian DJ Fisher at Omnia Nightclub just hours after his side was put to the sword in Las Vegas.

After the week-long Las Vegas celebration culminated in a marathon quadruple header, rugby league let its hair down on Sunday night.

Afterparties popped up all over Las Vegas as the eight teams, hundreds of officials and tens of thousands of fans closed out the second year of the NRL’s American takeover.

Given there were still players at Allegiant Stadium until after 11pm local time, you could forgive them for their festivities stretching out until the sun came up.

The Jillaroos, coming off their 90-4 thrashing of England’s Lionesses, had more reason to celebrate as they had backstage passes to American DJ Steve Aoki at the Hakkasan Nightclub at MGM Grand.

Cronulla and New Zealand players were spotted inside Resorts World’s Zouk Nightclub, where Grammy award-winning rapper T-Pain entertained the crowd, along with DJ Montay and musical artist Party PIP.

The NRL hosted a private area where former players and officials rubbed shoulders with singers, reality stars and celebrities.
