Have the Storm Wooden Spoon Punters been paid out yet?

Betting agencies received an "old fashioned betting sting" as some punters found out about the salary cap allegations before they became common knowledge. At the time the Storm were at $4.20 favourites to win the title at the time and $251 to win the wooden spoon. TAB Sportsbet has claimed it will be due to pay out at least $500,000 before betting was suspended.[16]

I think it would be a feel good story if someone out there had put $1,000 on the storm and won $250,000.

I dont know if there were betting limits in the wooden spoon category.

Thats strange,I thought the price for the storm to get the spoon was out as much as $5,001?

There's only 17 teams in the competition I doubt any outlet could offer 5000:1 odds. It would be too risky. It was only 8 years ago the Bulldogs got stripped of points.
