Orlando Pirates striker Tshegofatso Mabasa has opened up on the development of fellow marksman and rising star Boitumelo Radiopane, who is battling lack of regular game-time at the club.
With four strikers on their books, competition for a starting place will naturally always be tight at a club like Pirates.

No one will have known that better than Radiopane, who is yet to make a start this season, though he has featured on seven occasions as a substitute.
In contrast, Mabasa has enjoyed more playing time out of all the side's strikers and has rewarded Jose Riveiro handsomely with 13 goals from his 34 appearances.
The big hitman believes Radiopane has what it takes to succeed at the Soweto giants.
"Goals! He's a good striker; he's a good player. He definitely brings goals," Mabasa told journalists at an MTN event in Soweto on Monday.
"The boy knows how to finish, the boy knows how to time runs, he knows how to make runs, he knows how to hold the ball and we've seen that already.
"We just hope that he can consistently deliver that for the club," he continued.

Radiopane is an Pirates development product and earned promotion to the first team after a sensational campaign in the DStv Diski Challenge, where he scored a record 24 goals in 22 appearances.
He has since spent two seasons on loan at Cape Town Spurs and is looking to make his mark in a the famous Black and White strip.
In addition to Mabasa, the 23-year-old faces competition from Evidence Makgopa and Zakhele Lepasa.
