Veteran midfielder Themba Zwane will this week enjoy the rare achievement of completing a decade of unbroken service at Mamelodi Sundowns.
A decade at Sundowns is no common feat considering the high turnover of players, but Zwane will walk tall having ticked all boxes.

'Mshishi' has won silverware every season throughout those 10 years that he has spent at Chloorkop since he returned from his impressive loan spell at Mpumalanga Black Aces in 2014.
The entrance at Chloorkop ahead of the 2014/15 season was busy with Rheece Evans, Mame Niang, Dove Wome, Eleazar Rodgers, Kudakwashe Mahachi, Keagan Dolly, Method Mwanjali and Denis Onyango all coming in.
They were joined by Lindokuhle Mbatha, Therlo Moosa, Uzoenyi Ejike, Hichane Himoonde, Mario Booysen, Luyolo Nomandela, Mumuni Abubakar, Siyanda Zwane and the late Bongi Ntuli.
While most players on that list didn't get pass marks for their time at Sundowns, Zwane has stood the test of time to earn legendary status at the club.
Questioning the value that he brings both in the dressing room and on the field is akin to failing to appreciate that he has played all but one of the last 15 Bafana Bafana games.
This he has done in between the period since he turned 34 to within seven weeks before his birthday count clocks 35.
Throughout his 10 years in row, Zwane has averaged close to 2900 minutes every season.
No player has ever been able to give Sundowns such incredible numbers for presence on the field over a period of a decade at the club through the PSL era years.
Commendable for the Tembisa-born star is that his appearances average is nearer to 40 every season proving how much of full value for money he is.

His match presence per season has touched 42 at best, while the lowest that he has given Sundowns throughout the last decade was 29 during the 2014/15 season.
This tells of a player deserving of a reward of a two-year deal considering that he can still play at least 60% of the total minutes whenever he starts as was proven by what he did last term.
