Just had a very similar case here where a Rugby League player has been found guilty of betting fraud.
He and his mates bet that their opponents would score the first points of the game via a penalty (quite rare in RL) and the player in question, Ryan Tandy, subsequently gave away a blatant penalty right in front of his own teams posts in the first minute of the game.
Ironically, the opponents did not shoot for goal and instead took a tap and ran in a try!
However, suspicions were raised when footage became available of Tandy and friends all placing bets on the penalty being given in different Sydney locations and the police stepped in.

Allegedly.
