Dogs Cows match

Why are the cops waiting till after the grand final? Why? Directive from the NRL? Do they determine how police do there work? It shouldnt damn matter........Just proves what will come out and what wont.........

==============================

POLICE have obtained CCTV footage of a retired rugby league star placing a massive bet on the round 24 Cowboys-Bulldogs game that is under investigation for a betting sting.

The Daily Telegraph can reveal investigating officers are in possession of images of the former player at a Sydney TAB placing a significant amount on the Cowboys to kick a penalty goal as the first scoring option in the game.

The player cannot be named for legal reasons but spoke to us on several occasions yesterday afternoon to try to have the story withdrawn from the newspaper.

"They've probably got footage of 1000 people," he said.

"So why would you just want to name me?

"I put a bet on but it was for someone else and I've got nothing to do with any sting or any scandal.

"Are you trying to say I'm not allowed to go into a TAB to have a bet? I don't know Ryan Tandy. I don't know anything about it."

A text message was doing the rounds of all major media outlets yesterday, naming four players who were allegedly involved in a plot for the Cowboys to score a penalty goal in the opening stages of the game.

The retired player who is seen on CCTV footage, a player agent and a Sydney nightclub owner are also mentioned on the text.

It was claimed police would wait until after the grand final before stepping up their inquiries.

The Daily Telegraph forwarded the text message yesterday to State Crime Command senior detective Arthur Katsogiannis, who heads the investigation.

A police spokesperson said: "The investigation is ongoing and there is nothing to elaborate on at this stage."

Police are also studying CCTV footage of a well-known punter who was in the same TAB as the former player, who also backed the Cowboys to kick a penalty goal.

Bookies suspended betting on the first-scoring option after a plunge worth about $500,000 to the group of punters.

 

oh dear.........apparently there is footage (not live broadcast) of Payne pointing to the posts but they didnt listen to him.......

Apparently Tandy LIVES with a night club owner ...........

Another player involved has taken up an offer to play in the super league overseas.............

 

I did i did see a puddy twat

Watch the incident again and you will see both David Stagg and Pattan pointing at the sticks when the penalty is given

there is definitely some hand gesturing there

the shit SHOULD hit the fan in a huge way over this once the season is wrapped up

I see Stagg put his hand up , but on that footage i cannot see what Payne is doing..........There must be other footage from Fox sports, another angle................that shows him pointing to the posts......Payne is standing just to the right of penalty, the camera goes to a replay and u cant see what Payne is doing on that footage

I just find it really strange that the police are going to investigate till after the season........I mean, do they not want this tlbe a headline during the finals series? Do the NRL dictate when the police do there work?

Police are investigating it now, there are players/managers/ex players police are interviewing/gathering info on.

NRL wont release the culprits names after the season.

There is an SMS going around this morning on the names of people involved, I'm sure many people know already.

No real surprises.

Yeah i saw the text, it is on heaps on forums.......

One thing i will say, NO WAY this is just an isolated incidence......These people were just plain dumb to get caught. There are much much smoother operations going on.........

Cowboys

What a completely fucked up club if the players named is true

Interesting how the same player had a little story of his own he couldn't wait to tell the public only a matter of a few months ago

I can't see Gallop banning him.

Another one to be swept under the carpet.

Yeah, this one will be kept under the carpet for sure........

This is a plan that has gone horribly horribly wrong.......

The daily telegraph decribes the former player as a former NRL star???? Seriously, if he wasnt the brother of an NRL star, then i wouldnt know who he even was........

The sting with the cows roosters game last year has some strong legs now doesnt it?

My mate at the dogs is very tight lipped on this.......He doesnt want to say a word and gets abrupt when i mention it.......

For the record, he didnt play in that game..........

Neumann
Winitana
Hannant


One of them?

Nope............I will not mention his name here

Boy i would love to post something on here about something that happened about 6 yrs ago...Lets just say this shit isnt isolated.........U would honestly be a fool to think that every player is clean.......

Rostos Doggies mate


No wonder he has only played one NRL game this season, he can barely string a sentence together

Romelo
Foster

?

Nope, u wont guess, u are way off......

No more, i will not say yes or no anymore as u will be close to narrowing it down.................

Then you are full of shit.
