"We got a message from our team manager saying we had a special visitor coming on Monday," Brockie told Fairfax. "It was meant to be a day off but we came in and there he was.

"There's a little bit of talent there but he admitted that he hasn't done a lot since his last race and he's a little bit unfit.

"But he was quite open that he wants to go back to Jamaica for a month or two and try and see what he can do in terms of a footballing career."
