Overview
- The court heard Dávila coordinated with a Colombian contact known as 'J Col' to target yellow-card betting markets during the 2023–24 season.
- He recruited Macarthur teammates Clayton Lewis and Kearyn Baccus, who each received $10,000 after deliberate cautions in the December 9, 2023 match against Sydney FC.
- Fifty suspicious bets were placed on BetPlay before that game, with court documents citing either more than $200,000 in winning payouts or an estimated $167,387 loss to a betting operator.
- Magistrate Marguerite Vassall recorded convictions on two counts and imposed fines of $7,700 and $3,300.
- Agreed facts stated there was no evidence Dávila received funds from the overseas syndicate, while Lewis and Baccus earlier received non-custodial orders without convictions.
