Rio has vowed to return from his suspension ‘stronger and
better’ than ever:
RIO – WE CAN REBUILD HIM
"I am not the type of person who is going to sit there and
say 'that's it I have had enough, I'm going to quit. I am
not a quitter. I have been like that throughout my career,
my growing up, in my life I have never quit on anything. I
have started something that I want to finish, I want to
become as good as I can be in this game and this blip in my
career is not going to change my thinking on that.

"I owe it to myself, to my family, to the people who have
put hard work into me becoming what I am today and the fans
and the people at the club I play for, to make sure that I
come back from this stronger.

"I have to take it like a man. I have been banned fro eight
months now, I have got to come to terms with that and that
is something I know 100 per cent that I will be able to deal
with that and I will come back a stronger and better
person."
