Danny Terzini - coming up for game 300

Danny Terzini 300 - a milestone richly deserved

Moonee Valley legend Danny Terzini will enter rare company this Saturday when he becomes just the sixth player in our Club's history to record 300 games. The milestone is a testament to a loyal player who has stuck thick with Moonee Valley in good times and bad, and who can always be relied on to lead by example both on and off the field.
And it's only fitting that Danny will share his milestone game with 2013/14 Premiership teammate Pat Taylor, who is bringing up his 150th game.

Danny has done a lot for Moonee Valley - and captaining the Sixths Premiership in his 248th game is just one aspect of it. 
Danny is one of just seven Valley players to score more than 6000 runs, and is a past winner of our prestigious Lindsay Jones Best Clubman award.
He's captaining the Fifths this season jointly with Brendan Rhodes, and brings a level head to the games.
There's not much that Danny hasn't done on the field over his career so far - five centuries, including a high of 152 not out scored last season, capable hands with the wicketkeeping gloves and 37 wickets with his deceptive darters.
 Danny has won batting awards in the Thirds, Fifths, Sixths and Sevenths, and twice took out fielding awards in the Thirds.
He was one of the driving forces along with then-President Darren Nagle in nurturing our young talent when Moonee Valley first formed juniors in 1996/97, and has continued to display a strong interest in junior development ever since.
It's perhaps fitting that three of the young men he helped guide through juniors were Premiership teammates with Danny in the 2013/14 flag.
