But Greater Western Sydney spearhead Jeremy Cameron can now call himself one when he lines up for the 150^th time in the Giants' round 23 match against Gold Coast on Saturday.

The 26-year-old, who hails from the south-west Victorian town of Dartmoor, said he was proud to reach the milestone but left room to have a laugh at his own expense.

"It means a lot... I would have got here a bit quicker if I didn't get suspended so much early on.

"It has been a good journey starting with a club from scratch. It's really rare and it has been good to stick around for the highs and lows and particularly early days when we weren't winning too many games.

"Then building it from nothing and then making finals, it has all been awesome part of it and it has all happened inside 150 games so hopefully there is more to come."

Cameron was set to play his 150th game last Sunday against the Bulldogs, but a minor hamstring injury sidelined him.

"I had my family up and they were thinking I was going to be playing my 150^th then I had to pull out late, which was disappointing," he said.

But this weekend he will become the second player to qualify for life membership at the AFL's youngest club after arriving at the age of 17 as an underage recruit.

Usually Cameron isn't second when it comes to achieving milestones at the club.

In 149 games across eight seasons he became the first Giants player to be named in an All-Australian team in 2013, the same year he won his first Kevin Sheedy Medal.

He was also the club's first top goal-kicker and has held the title every season the club has existed.

Now he needs just five goals and hope North Melbourne's Ben Brown fails to score to become the first player at the club to win the Coleman Medal.

But if Cameron doesn't get there it won't bother him too much.

"It's something more so if you win one, you win one and then after footy something you can look back on after you retire and say you're a Coleman Medalist," he said.

"But it's not something I focused my footy on. There is so many different aspects to my game that I need to improve on and have improved on over the years.

"It's not something I think about all the time and I think we need to win a flag. We have got close a couple of times, losing some prelims, so we need to take that next step.

"To be honest the Coleman has nothing to do with that."
