Firstly I note we are one of the 5 major sports in the UK. I digress.
I wonder if with the relatively low wages in RL we are open to this. I can't see a player deliberately getting a yellow card as it affects the team far more than in football. But if the rewards are the alleged £70k that Sodje got (a years salary to most in RL) then I can understand why one or two may well be tempted. Sad as that may seem.
Given betting seems to be totally unregulated in the far east, certainly compared to here and RL may well fly under the radar there, I can see why we might be vulnerable.

If they've no involvement it's hard to ban, but since all superleague players know each other quite well, who's to say they're not giving each other inside info? Bit of a tough one

As a punter, I have no problem with it, but can see why, to the wider world, it is sensible for sportsmen not to have a bet on their sport.

| Quote: Graham Richards "It was simple English (might be lost on you I don't know).
There was (as is now the case) a delegation from major sports that attended the meeting. RL was one of the 5 that attended.
I put no emphasis on the "the" at all. It was simple English. "RL was one of the five" not "RL was one of [iTHE[/i five" how you wish to read it is up to you but don't try scoring any bonus points at my expense.. '"
really?

| Let's not forget that the bookmakers have to actually offer a market first. Some of these scenarios are just daft. The most obvious one has to be the first scoring play.

| Quote: Towns88 "Ask Sean long about that!'"
Remember Tommy Martyn mention something at a Sportsman Meal, how him and Long had put money on the first point coming from a Drop Goal at Leeds a few years back (which apparently nearly came off, had it not for a charge down, IIRC, and Leeds running around to the other end to score a try).
