Sbu at his best is a asset…makes a person wonder what happened at the bulls, especially his player/coach relationship with Jake ?? Hope he makes headway at the Cheetahs and After that, join the Stormers.

If he is at the Cheetas, his salary must be lower than the main teams. 
Maybe he can establish some more professionalism. He might be better moving to outside center where their is less depth than wing.

Since when is being a doos a mental health issue? It's a social disorder, sure...but that's just another way to say that people don't like him. Nah, we got plenty of fantastic wingers.

Trouble follows this guy around with every team he joins .... such an unlucky guy hey

I would not invest in a player like this ... too disruptive... far too arrogant... does not give a shit at all about the team he plays for

Harsh words there DA….I can’t recall him making trouble by the boks? He scored 9 tries in sixteen Games….. let’s hope this time around, he can make a change and get his Attitude in check.

He is older now so may have wised up. Time marches on and he needs to cash in on the remainder of his career. Definitely a talent.

Unfortunately it would be best for him not to play elite sport as he won't be able to handle the pressure. Don't forget about Dan Vickerman, Bishops boy from Cape Town that played at lock for Australia who committed suicide at 37 after rugby. 

I also think Sbu is his attitude, he doesn't like playing 2nd fiddle and probably not the right fit for a team. I wouldn't put him in my team, no matter how good he is

"Harsh words there DA"

Harsh words are needed Mpower

Sbu was given a fantastic opportunity when offered a contract with the Bulls, when he was playing for the Sharks, but he literally just vanished from all training sessions, went quiet on social media, and did not once contact any Bulls teammate or management, to let them know where he was and that he was actually ok.

Only after a few weeks had gone by of him being missing, and also after the Bulls were forced to make a big media announcement..... only then did he contact the Bulls...to say that he was staying with his father.

Nah..... what a wasted fantastic talent, who has a major attitude issue that has followed him around for a long time.... and I will say again, what I said back then .... don't confuse a genuine mental disorder with downright arrogant self entitlement behaviour.

Can’t argue with what he did, but he can be a good back up to our wings we already have….let’s see what he does from now…as this is most probably his last chance.

Only a bunch of self absorbed selfish pricks would not give Nkosi another chance Good on the Cheetahs - it’s exactly what I would do
