‘One of the greats’: Buzz makes surprise call on legendary career in touching message

Legendary sports journalist Phil ‘Buzz’ Rothfield has retired, ending a 50-year stint with News Corp Australia covering events across the globe, with a focus on rugby league.

Rothfield began his time as a journalist in 1976, quickly becoming one of Australia’s best news-breakers and a dominant voice across the country’s media landscape.

Alongside covering rugby league, Rothfield also was the Olympics editor for News Corp in the 2000 Olympic Games and attended multiple Super Bowls and football World Cups.

Rothfield has previously held positions as Sunday Telegraph deputy editor, executive sports editor of The Daily Telegraph and Sunday Telegraph before becoming the sports editor-at-large over the last decade.

Phil Rothfield to retire from sports journalism

News Corp veteran journalist Phil 'Buzz' Rothfield has decided to end his sports journalism career.

The veteran reporter, who has broken hundreds, if not thousands, of stories over the years, first worked for the publication in 1976, and has been part of rugby league's fabric ever since.

The Cronulla Sharks supporter has polarised opinion across the NRL landscape during his career, particularly in the later years, with a number of feuds – including against Canterbury Bulldogs director of football Phil Gould – breaking out.

While Rothfield spent the majority of his time covering rugby league, he also covered other sports including the 2000 Olympic Games where he was the editor of that round for its duration.

The dynamic landscape of current events often brings forth significant discussions. Monitoring these developments provides crucial insights.
