LAS VEGAS — For the National Rugby League, inviting the Newcastle Knights as one of the four teams playing in the league’s two marquee season openers Saturday at Allegiant Stadium as part of its push to globalize the game is akin to the NFL presenting the Browns, Jets or Raiders to the world on its biggest stage. As a fan of Australian rugby league, you wouldn’t be out of line if you were experiencing pangs that the Knights don’t belong.
