The Titans utility posted to Instagram following last week's Melbourne Cup with a screenshot of a Sportsbet account.<\/p>\n

Brimson, 26, wrote "see you at Pav" and boasted about winning big on the Melbourne Cup.<\/p>\n

According to the photo the bettor had put $100 on Knight's Choice to win the Cup at $101, netting a $10,100 payout.<\/p>\n

But Brimson deleted the photo soon after when people pointed out \ufeffthe two bets that were pictured underneath.<\/p>\n

Someone had attempted to wipe out the two bets but enough of the text was showing to suggest the account had been betting on either rugby or rugby league games.<\/p>\n

From the visible text it appeared he had been betting on first tryscorers.<\/p>\n

Brimson's manager Jim Banaghan said the bet was placed by a family member but could not explain why his client had posted the photo to his social media.<\/p>\n

"A family member sent it to him, he copied it and posted it," Banaghan told the Sydney Morning Herald.<\/p>\n

"I have the whole [text] conversations [with the family member], they will be sent to the [NRL] integrity unit and it will all be hit on the head straight away.<\/p>\n

"I've given it to the CEO of the club and he has given it to the integrity commission.<\/p>\n

"There's nothing to it \u2026 it was all a bit of a wind-up and it has just backfired."<\/p>\n

\ufeffPeople registered with the NRL – including players – are not allowed to bet on rugby league games.<\/p>\n

The last NRL player to be banned for betting on games was Tim Simona of the Wests Tigers in 2017.\ufeff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
