Phil Gould responds to Peter Beattie’s awkward brain explosion
Well, this is awkward.
The boss of the Australian Rugby League Commission, Peter Beattie, stumbled majorly when he was asked a simple question by league legend Phil Gould last night.
Mr Beattie was unable to correctly name the Cronulla Sharks.
Phil Gould tells Ben Fordham how it all happened.
“I think I confused him. I thought I’d ask him a simple question, knowing he’d know the answer.
“And when I asked the question he looked a bit confused at me and said, ‘I don’t know’.”
Phil says he felt sorry for the ARLC Chairman.
“He knows who the Cronulla Sharks are and I think it’s the way I asked the question. I don’t think it registered with him.”
