Former Bulldogs forward Ryan Tandy has been found guilty of match-fixing in an NRL betting scam.
Magistrate Janet Wahlquist on Thursday said it was clear there was a plan to manipulate the first scoring of the game in August 2010 between the Bulldogs and the North Queensland Cowboys.
The plan had to include at least one player to make the bet come off, and the only rational hypothesis was that Tandy's role was to do all that he could to make sure the Cowboys scored the first penalty goal, Ms Wahlquist said.
"He is the only player the evidence points to," she said.
Tandy, 30, had pleaded not guilty to manipulating the first scoring point of the match to dishonestly obtain a financial advantage for "Sam Ayoub, John Elias and others, to wit, $AU113,245 from Tabcorp".
