SuperPicks presenter and social media influencer Tshepang “Twiggy Moli” Mollison received backlash after using strong language on TV. 

The footage that was shared by @kevykay10 made rounds on social media, leaving people unimpressed with both the presenter and the channel. 

Reacting to the video, @yazidBanda said:

"This is the danger with having stans on such platforms, we hear it everytime in spaces - most stans aren't objective and are always pushing an agenda, there are ways you can professionally articulate you don't like a player without swearing on live TV."

"@SuperSportTV really needs to do something about the level of professionalism during their WC broadcasts. To think she even thought of saying that on TV, I'm shocked. While I'm here they also need to get rid of that Social Corner, it's so embarrassing."

Supersport has since released an apology stating that the video was never meant to go public. The statement reads:

"SuperSport is aware of a SuperPicks video circulating on social media. This was a rehearsal that was not meant for broadcast. Despite this, we unreservedly apologise for the language used.”
