The NRL has agreed to meet with a former contractor who has told the governing body he has fresh information about a suspicious betting sting that netted a punter a six-figure sum.

The claims relate to an episode in 2008 when a punter wagered heavily – and successfully – on the top-tacklers and top-metres-gained markets in the NRL, collecting more than $100,000 and prompting bookmakers to shut down such exotic options.

Officials at League Central looked at the matter four years ago when its former statistics provider Andrew Moufarrige claimed official stats had been altered to ensure the punter won.

The NRL found no evidence of any wrongdoing at the time but has confirmed its Integrity Unit will meet Moufarrige again in coming days after he suggested he had more information he could provide.
