  • Phil Gould's Thoughts on Rothfield, Wilson and Hadley

    Some direct quotes from Gould in regards to Phil Rothfield, Bec Wilson and Ray Hadley:

    “Rothfield has sledged me for more than a decade. His bitterness towards me has overtaken common sense and accuracy where my name is concerned. He is constantly wrong about me but that doesn’t stop him backing up for another go. He has never contacted me to verify a story. He once sent me an abusive email. My email response must have hit the mark because he’s never written to me again. These days he’s just spitting into the wind. Every time he opens his mouth about me it blows right back in his face.” Phil Gould unload on newspaper columnist Phil Rothfield a week after reports that Rickey Stuart had gone to Roosters head honcho Phil Gould and complained that Gould was getting to involved in the matters of the first grade side.

    “As for Rebecca Wilson?Ha, ha, ha. Sorry. I can’t even say her name without laughing. She must be trying to emulate Rothfield because her gossip column bears a striking resemblance to his style. Despite constantly writing about me over the years, she has never had the courage to contact me to verify a story. Her stories about me have been inaccurate, exaggerated, embellished and misrepresentative. As far as I am concerned, it has been a vindictive, deliberate and sustained campaign. It’s all become so boring and her credibility has suffered so much that she must be close to giving it away and allowing someone else to write that gossip column.” Gould again, this time targeting Telegraph hack Rebecca Wilson.

    “And Ray Hadley? He often delivers vindictive attacks on individuals, sometimes targeting their very livelihood. Don’t take my word for it. Ask people such as Brian Smith, Paul Vautin, Peter Sterling, John Gibbs and Andrew Voss. He, too, has never had the courage to phone me to verify a story before shooting off his mouth. I wonder why? Like Rothfield, Hadley is extremely thin-skinned. They dish it out but can’t take it.” Gould AGAIN, this time taking aim at radio commentator Ray Hadley.

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    Hey may not make much sense when he talks sometimes, but he can provide some very good insight on the game, and is not afraid to speak his mind and voice his opinions. I would read his articles long before any of Rothfield, Bourbon Bec or Hadley.

        Spot on - I have a lot of time for Phil who has been the target of a concerted campaign from Murdoch's Muppets and other dribblers from the old NRL NEWS Limited regime for years for his counter culture stand against the establishment and has long been a champion of the supporters of our game ahead of some of the self interested elements.

        Phil made the time to come out to our country town to run a coaches forum which was really good and for someone who has a lot of commitments was happy to stay around late in the evening and have some pretty honest and insightful discussion around the game.

        The telling point he made about this mob of keyboard heroes and b rate commentators mentioned above is none of them have the courage to front him about any of the rubbish they publish, the same goes for what they write about players in the game.

        The only thing about Phil is he tends to switch the vaudeville on when he joins the commentary team. None the less I rate him as a coach and his thoughts on the game resonate with me as someone who believes the supporters of the clubs are at the heart of the game.

        I think he has the good of the game in his mind when he writes his articles unlike all of the above.

          Gus was a good 1st grader, coached at the highest level & is a student of the game. What have either of these 3 bitter agenda driven clowns ever achieved in their lives that has even come close?

              It wasn't an article, just an excerpt from an email or something.

                    I can't help but agree with every word about Hadley. He is the most hated person on radio.

                      I don't know why Gus would even respond.

                      They are all as egotistic as each other, Gus included.

                            At least Gus has been there and done it as a player and a coach.

                            The other two are the biggest farktards ever to draw a breath.

                            Good to hear today on TalkinSport Rothwitt copped a pasting over his constant negative dribble about anything RL, especially since NewsFilth exited the dictatorship that was RL post SL.

                            Finally the sheeple are waking up.

                            Stay off the pickle juice, Doufuss.

                              stsae is exactly right, the sooner we stop reading 'gossip' articles by nobodies like Rothfield and Wilson, and the sooner we start reading articles by respected journalists and past players, on the analytical topics and the growth of the game, the better we all will be for it.
