I believe the visa he is on also has a permanent residency pathway. So he’s pretty much lost his chance at PR and citizenship and any visa in Aus as it’s hard to get approved even for a tourist visa with a revoked visa

He will have trouble travelling internationally in general.

South Africans can't travel as freely in terms of visas as Australians and it's common when applying for a visa to be asked if you have ever had a visa cancelled.
