2 issues I think, one is the payment situation and that is probably no different to other sports, both men and women. Thinking netball and rugby where pay is reasonably low and working another job is not unusual. Basketball imports can be on similar money but have the ability to play up to 3 seasons in a year to offset that.
The other issue is the cultural/treatment one that she alludes to. That will be what it is but perhaps not too widespread given how well the team is going at the moment. Unusual for a disgruntled team to perform so far above expectations if it is rotten within. Over the top of all this, I am a male and have absolutely no appreciation of female perceptions in sport so it is a mystery. I can only think if Doloras on here that might be able to provide a womin’s perspective on this

I see Davidson posted on IG taking about a positive environment this morning indicating there are some difference in opinions across the squad (perhaps depending on who was around in previous years and who wasn't)
Probably a much tougher/ professional culture under Temple than the previous‘ bring a teddy bear’ setup under Nat.
Not for everyone and if you don’t like it move on.
Maybe this is what Knott is talking about, she may get the same answer. Just get tougher (eye roll emoji)
You need players to perform and if the club, coach loose players like Knott it is bad for everyone. I guess best team do both, pressure and teddy bears.
