       Why quote JG at the top of that? You're not addressing what he
       said.

       He wants solid proof of something now, that does not presently
       exist, and probably never will exist, it seems reasonable that
       the behaviour cited, would not win friends and influence people
       amongst her colleagues.
       The decision from the club seems to be to exercise the right to
       silence, to avoid it becoming a media circus, and a she said we
       said car crash, only KD and the club knows what happened, and
       everything else is opinion and speculation.
       The idea that it is around money is not that far fetched, as
       that is a major factor in most employment arguments, and it
       seems reasonable that if she was constantly late it may upset
       people.
       And her comments around not expecting it to happen are
       interesting, it means she did not understand that her conduct
       was causing concern, that is a very difficult situation for
       management to deal with.
       The whole thing is the media equivalent of a no comment
       interview, with Harlequins providing the no comment.

       I'm not asking for solid proof. I'm asking "where is this coming
       from in the first place". There's quite a difference there. Why
       are we talking about her image rights, where did that come from?
       Why was "wanting more time off" mentioned? I'm assuming this is
       coming from somewhere, even if it's rumours from social media or
       something, so why is it so hard to actually get that
       information?

       We are talking about image rights because.
       The Rugby Football Union (RFU) and PWR enforce strict PWR
       Remuneration Cap Regulations. Clubs are required to submit full
       details of any image rights or promotional services contracts
       they enter into with players or image rights companies to ensure
       compliance.
       So all clubs are constrained by the regulations, as the players
       commercial value has increased the regulations have not evolved.

       I understand that these things exist. I am trying to understand
       why Deadly said, amongst other things, that Kildunne had
       "allegedly asked for a much larger chunk of the cap ( which
       would have unbalanced the whole Club pay structure) and wanted
       complete control over image rights" when (as far as I could
       tell) no-one had mentioned these things before.
       If the answer is "Deadly wasn't repeating anything he read or
       heard, he was 100% speculating that these things were all
       possible without there being any rumours or articles about them"
       then that is fine! I was literally just asking what the basis
       for these comments was, because I wanted to know more!
       Jeez people

       One thing that I am pleased about, so far, is she isn't
       plastered all over the front pages with how Quins wronged her.
       We see it in sport (and non sport) all the time, trying to
       control the narrative. I imagine she has an agent/manager who
       might push her that route. (Emphasis on might, just in case)

       the article doesn't seem to say that. I mean, the speculation is
       also that they did anything to help her personally, we don't
       know that either. And again, the comment about not training
       properly doesn't seem to be backed up by the articles so far -
       you mentioned this before, but the Telegraph piece purely
       references her being late for training, not that she didn't take
       it seriously. Where is that coming from? Genuine question, as
       there are some specific accusations you've made that I'm sure
       you didn't pull out of thin air.

       Sorry, Jammers, I was feeling a bit touchy but your phrase "as
       there are some specific accusations you've made that I'm sure
       you didn't pull out of thin air." irked me a little. I was
       simply reading between the lines as best I could tbh.

       No worries, I should've just quoted the post I was referring to
       and asked directly. The way it was worded definitely made it
       seem like I'd missed an article or some rumours.
