The SACA probably needs to send an even stronger message and suspend him indefinitely until he reaches an appropriate fitness level for a professional sportsman. If he cant attain that level, then so be it.

Hate to break it to you, but that was an old photo.

Maybe it was, but i saw him at a 20/20 2 weeks ago and he was still way too big for an elite sportsman.

The sad thing is we probably wont see the best of him for a while. If hes going to be that unfit when hes at his peak then thats really sad. He has the ability but when he gets to 20 - 30 hes stuffed like hes been out there for a day. And hence thats why he dosent get those big scores.
