SENIOR News Corp journalist Phil Rothfield has responded to a foul-mouthed spray from Cronulla pair Andrew Fifita and Josh Dugan.
Fifita and Dugan took aim at The Daily Telegraph’s rugby league reporter in a podcast, with the former labelling Rothfield a “complete f***wit”.
‘COMPLETE F***WIT’: FIFITA, DUGAN SPRAY JOURNALIST
The Sharks players are unhappy with some of the coverage they have received from Rothfield this year.
And Rothfield hit back in a series of tweets aimed at the former Origin teammates.
Not concerned in the slightest - more concerned for the club’s image with ratbags like that pair https://t.co/pJIVxoMzFd

Have never protected either of them - they hate because I have always exposed their poor behaviour. https://t.co/BTabgxW4z0

Think it shows mate I treat Cronulla players the same as other clubs - if you want to get thrown out of RSLs, go on a bender in Origin camp, abuse juniors refs or support a 1-punch killer, then expect to be exposed https://t.co/Uq4Dic3gzp

Mate I didn't even write about the wrestle - I wrote that Dugan was thrown out of the RSL that night for swearing in the company of women https://t.co/Hnw4bPHikt
