NSW police say they found evidence of NRL players providing insider information to gamblers as part of the now closed investigation into match-fixing in the sport.
While detectives are satisfied none of the four games they investigated in 2015 and 2016 were fixed, they are concerned players illegally passed inside information on.
“We’ve got no doubt there was insider information being exchanged about players who were playing, injuries, who was feeling good and who was feeling bad,” Detective superintendent Scott Cook said on Friday.
