In a bid to get a lenient sentence, De Kock told the court that the football star had two children he needed to take care of,“As a soccer player, his salary fluctuates, and his salary is roughly R50 000. He has to send money to his first child who lives with their mother in Qwa-Qwa, and he lives with his other child. My client will appreciate a suspended sentence,” De Kock said.

"He is a part-time football player after all. He doubles playing football with beating women and making court appearances.""At Pirates, that 50k a month is possible, remember they should be grateful for playing for the big brand.""There are various parts to salary... other benefits would be called something else like performance... they are managing the truth.""A whole superstar of the team earning just R50k???
