Kasi flavour reactions
The Kasi flavour debate among local football fans and figures is a never-ending one.
On one hand you get people who encourage it by saying it's a uniquely South African, while other rubbish it as mere showboating and something that unnecessarily slows down the momentum of the game.
Gavin Hunt has shown his dislike for the 'showboating' and in February, he criticised the skills exhibited by two Orlando Pirates reserve team players in the Diski Challenge. Taking to Twitter to say he found the antics "horrifying".

Hunt's reaction can be interpreted as him being embarrassed on the football he's witnessing or him being shocked - either way, his opinions on Kasi flavour most likely won't change anytime soon.
Teko Modise on the other hand, who was hailed for being a mercurial figure in midfield throughout his successful career, reacted somewhat positively to Andile Mpisane's flagrant no-look pass in Royal AM's 0-0 draw to Richards Bay.
Dona reposted the video of Mpisane's pass and simply captioned it: "Enjoy the game" adding the 'Clinking Glasses' emoji.
