« Nous sommes ravis qu’Ellie ait renouvelé son contrat avec le club. Elle est capitale dans notre style de jeu et incarne exactement ce que signifie jouer à la manière des Quins », a déclaré l’entraîneur en chef Ross Chisholm sur le site Internet du club.

Kildunne a démarré sa carrière à Gloucester-Hartpury avant de rejoindre les Wasps en 2020, puis les Harlequins un an plus tard.

Elle est internationale depuis 2017 et a été désignée meilleure joueuse du Tournoi de Six Nations 2024. Joueuse aux jambes de feu capable de remonter le terrain toute seule plusieurs fois par match, elle a inscrit 14 essais en neuf tests sur l’ensemble de l’année 2024.

Eben Etzebeth staring at huge ban after another red card

Well… I'd say the modern Boks are not a particularly violent team but it's impossible to getaway with much violence on an international rugby field now. The Boks of yesteryear were at times brutal. Whether or not the reputation is justified, they do have that reputation amongst a lot of rugby fans.

As for point 2.. it's a tricky one, I don't want to slander a nation here. I'm no “Bok hater”, but I've gotta say some Bok fans are the most obnoxious fans I've personally encountered. Notably this didn't seem to be a problem until the Boks became the best in the world. I agree that fans from other nations can be awful too, every nation has it's fair share of d-heads but going on any rugby forum or YouTube comments is quite tedious these days owing to the legions of partisan Bok fans who jump onto every thread regardless of if it's about the Boks to tell everyone how much better the Boks are than everyone else. A Saffa once told me that SA is a troubled country and because of that the Boks are a symbol of SA victory against all odds so that's why the fans are so passionate. At least you recognise that there is an issue with some Bok fans, that's more than many are willing to concede. Whatever the reason, it's just boring is all I can tell you and I can say coming from a place of absolute honesty I encounter far, far more arrogance and obnoxious behaviour from Bok fans than any other fanbase - the kiwis were nothing like this when they were on top. So look much love to SA, I bear no hatred of ill will, I just want to have conversations about rugby without being told constantly that the Boks are the best team in the world and all coaches except Rassie are useless etc
