Seymour's David Mundy is set to break the Fremantle Football Club's games record if he continues his stellar form and avoids injury for the rest of the season.
If he plays the remaining home and away games this season, Mundy would be set to break Matthew Pavlich's record of 353 games in the final round of the season.
But he will bring up another milestone - his 350th game - this weekend against Sydney.
After an outstanding year, which has seen the 36-year-old average 25.1 disposals, 11.6 kicks, 13.5 handballs, 3.3 marks, 4.2 tackles and 5.6 clearances a game and sees the 2015 All Australian in ninth spot in the AFL Coaches’ Award, Mundy is expected to sign on for another season, meaning 2022 would be his 19th at AFL level.
While the club has tried to help Mundy play on next season by suggesting he play as the medical sub, the veteran hasn't wanted a bar of it, according to Dockers coach Justin Longmuir.
“It has crossed our minds (to rest Mundy or use him as a sub) but he is coming to me and saying he wants to play every week,” Longmuir said.
“He played 60 per cent game time on the weekend (against Hawthorn) so we have managed to get him through that game without burning him out.
“We try to manage him in games. He starts off in a lot of quarters which limits his game time.
“He is going nicely.
“He is so professional, he recovers meticulously.
“He plans physically and mentally for each game and his output in each game is a by-product of that and he does it week-in, week-out.”
Mundy's manager, Anthony McConville, told AFL.com.au in April that the midfielder was being driven late in his career by the prospect of success with the rising Dockers.
“He would desperately want premiership success,” McConville said.
“He is committed to not only playing his best to achieve that success but also committed to helping the youth of the club for their future success whether he would be playing or not.”
