It's high time that our sporting celebrities stopped spitting and doing St Nick's flick (emptying their nasal contents) on the sports field. When SARS hit the Far East, places such as Hong Kong made it illegal to spit in a public place. I think the fine for spitting back then was HK$1000. This fine was strictly adhered to, as is the HK$600 for littering. You are fined the full amount and basically rot in a prison cell until it is paid. For a major city this place is scrupulously clean. We should do the same thing here...
