      @@johnfrench741 in the 90’s I was a DJ in Cape Town & the 95 Boks came jolling at club called the Function where I was a result DJ. Dalton started a fight with Honeyball a fellow Bok. The policy at the club was if a fight starts you turn off the music & turn on the lights, when that happened everything went quiet and all you could hear was Dalton screaming “Honeyball jou ma se fet poes” and stormed out

      his temperament caused him to lose his cool on and off the field, the court files do not lie, is such a pity as he was an excellent player, i dont think all his files opened at the right time,
