She finally broke her finals duck in 2017 and the Blues' B grade side has been strong since.

But as Keogh says the "heartbreaking" thing is they have played in two preliminary finals - 2017 and '19 - and lost both by one goal.

So the fire is burning bright for Keogh whose team is preparing for another finals campaign.

The Blues are fourth on the ladder and 10 points clear of fifth-ranked Dennington.

Those sides will meet on Saturday at Nirranda Recreation Reserve in what will be Keogh's 250^th senior match for the Blues.

Playing finals is something the goalie has relished after many years without reaching the pointy end of the season.

"You're playing so many games and so many years, and rocking up and just thinking 'Oh, I don't know why I'm here. We're not going to make it'," she said.

"But to make it to the final series and to see the difference from a normal game to finals - it's something completely different that you can't imagine."

She said the club had come a long way since its toughest days on the score sheet and highlighted A grade and A reserve were also going to play finals.

The long-time goal shooter/attack has enjoyed playing alongside Rebecca Young and Emma Shepherd under the ring this season.

Family has been a feature of Keogh's involvement at the Blues.

Her dad had a long career at the club and her mum has served on the club's committee.

The milestone player's brothers Ben and Tim and sister Clare have also been involved with the club.

Otherwise, her nephew Harry plays footy and her cousins - the Couchs - are entrenched in the club.

Keogh is assistant coach to B grade mentor, Lisa Couch.

The 250-gamer started in juniors and has seen the club develop over the years.

"Even the courts have come a long way, we only used to have one and now we've got three," she said.

The attacking netballer is proud she's been a one-club player.

"My dad would be heartbroken if I decided to go anywhere else," she said.

"I am (proud) because it's just an amazing club to be with and I guess even though all your family are there too, your friends - they turn into lifelong friends and family pretty much."

Nirranda A reserve netballer Anna Murnane played her 200^th club game a fortnight ago.

The Blues' A grade side is aiming to make it an undefeated regular season on Saturday when it faces the Dogs.
