This split the country and obviously sent social media into a spin.

Dyantyi stood by his initial comments, which were: "I have never cheated and never will."

There are also multiple conspiracies flying about, including one very bizarre assertion. 

Also, there are conversations with Bok prop Tendai "Beast" Mtawarira and former Bulls winger Trompie Nontshinga.
