NRL players haven't been deterred from punting on games by last year's betting scandal, according to the results of a confidential poll.
Rugby League Week's annual players' poll found almost one in five players knows of other players who have bet on a game.
The NRL was plunged into scandal late last year following allegations of match-fixing when there was a plunge on a penalty goal as the first scoring play in a Canterbury-North Queensland fixture.
Bulldogs prop Ryan Tandy was charged with four counts of lying to a NSW Crime Commission hearing into the incident.
But players still seem to be willing to take a risk by betting on games, according to a poll of 100 anonymous players.
