Yeah all good here Obi-Wan. Just never heard of Spot Fixing before. I thought it was about removing those troublesome stains.

Sky News says that Tandy has been charged with similar offences as Elias & Ayoub AND they are questioning him over the Dogs 1 point loss the Titans earlier in the year. Sky showed vision of Tandy dropping the ball cold on 3 occasions towards the end of the game.

One of Ayoub's lower-profile players, the Parramatta Eels recruit Brad Murray, no longer lives in his Strathfield home.
He was the player identified placing a number of bets on the penalty goal in a Sydney hotel prior to the game.
Murray has been interviewed by police and the state crime commission but remains on Parramatta's playing roster and will be selected in the first round of the competition the weekend after next. Unlike the Bulldogs, who stood down Tandy once he was charged, the Eels are satisfied Murray has fully co-operated with police and played no role in the alleged sting.

Former Sydney Roosters and now Parramatta player Brad Murray, who was the man shown in CCTV footage placing a bet on the Cowboys penalty goal option at a TAB outlet in Flemington, was living with Ayoub, but Eels chief executive Paul Osborne said the player had now moved out. He told the Herald the Eels had encouraged Murray to move so he could concentrate on his football with the season about to begin.

Yeah I'm pretty sure Murray had no idea what was going on.
He probably didn't realise he was trying to fleece the tab of all it's cash!!

Actually if Murray did come clean to the authorities he is to be commended. Hope he has police protection.

Ayoub's bail conditions include staying away from potential witnesses, including Schell. He has also been ordered to stay away from the Parramatta club and grounds.

This seems to imply that Murray has squawked to police. Hope he's home location is a secret.

If it's true and Murray is now a witness for the cops then good on him.
But he might have to emply some bodyguards as well.
