My guess, and it is just that, is the Mail are building a case by drip feeding information and there's SHOCK! HORROR! to come. Otherwise why didn't they just announce the Itoje thing with the others? It could be an attempt to create an atmosphere where "sweeping it under the carpet" is not possible.
As for the England situation, there is a big difference between what the clubs do and what the RFU do. That's the whole club vs country issue. The salary cap is something between the clubs, PRL and the players. I don't see it having anything to do with England/RFU.
I agree
As I said, nice to see all these senior players starting to learn how to make their own way in the world and planning for their post rugby situation. And it's all the players you might have thought would have difficulty fitting under a salary cap. Strange that.
And as I said, suspect the Mail has other ammunition from a 4 month investigation.
Yes many of the left do not like the DM ( not my rag of choice) but some of their investigation journalism is very good. It may fly in the face of people's own personal liberal narrative however.
