PARRAMATTA will wait until an investigation into the controversial Bulldogs-Cowboys match is complete before considering any action, after young halfback Brad Murray was drawn into the scandal. http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/eels-tell-young-star-brad-murray-to-assist-police/story-e6frexnr-1225965358419
The Eels yesterday confirmed Murray, 20, was the man shown placing a bet on the match in CCTV footage released by police.
A series of big bets were made on the Cowboys opening the scoring with a penalty goal, according to police, who made no suggestion Murray was involved in criminal activity but thought he may be able to help their investigation.
Eels chief executive Paul Osborne has encouraged Murray, who last year captained the Roosters' under-20 Toyota Cup side before joining the Eels, to assist the police.
"We'll let the police finish their work first and then have a look into what action we may take, if any," Osborne said.
