One of the longest standing friendships in rugby league is on the rocks after almost four decades | MichaelChammas
While Gould was unsure if Beavis had been involved in what he described as a "scurrilous" campaign, the former Panthers general manager believes his silence was just as telling."The most hurtful thing through all of this is that Anthony Griffin is managed by Wayne Beavis, who's been a very dear friend of mine for 40 years," Gould said.
"Now, it pains me to say, I don't know if Wayne was a party to this ridiculous and scurrilous campaign to involve my name as a lever to securing Anthony Griffin a job at the Dragons, but by his silence on this issue, I can only assume that he has endorsed this tactic and allowed it to play out the way it has.
Gould and Beavis have worked together on a number of key signings over the years, including the orchestration of the swap deal between the Panthers and Sharks when the clubs traded the services of James Maloney and Matt Moylan a few years ago.
