So 'apparently' there's also investigations going on into match fixing. An article I read just a minute ado said one game in particular. Don't smite me down because I'm the sturnest of manly fans, but last years final v Melbourne comes mind very quickly. What other games come to anyone's mind as unbelievably weird results / performances.
I don't think you'd ever see a finals match fixed Spot fixing would be the better term for it as well, too hard to fix an entire match, where it would be done is 1st scoring play and things like that
The NSW Police have confirmed that they have NO current or ongoing investigations into match fixing. They have reviewed the information provided by the ACC and have no plans for any further investigations.
When they use the term " match fixing " it means fixing a type of betting. Not necessarily the result of the match. Could be first points method or whether a 40/20 is kicked.
100% he was just the scapegoat. Can someone tell me, is it ok for a brother or father to bet on their son/brother as 1stTS?
I've said before I can forgive drug cheats but not people that throw a game they should be banned for life
I think you will find the match fixing relates mainly to the under 20's comp. There have been so many tips flying around about games for the past 3 or 4 seasons.
There was a game last year when first played last. Last was tipped to win by 13 plus. They led 20 odd to nil before half time. I think it was Souths and Warriors, but not certain of this. It was just one example. I should add if they couldn't convict Tandy no one has anything to worry about.
I don't know about an appeal but he was found guilty: http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-league/league-news/ryan-tandy-found-guilty-20111006-1laf8.html
I think Tandy got off light but I think he has been helping them with their investigation for a lighter sentence.
