"Postcode" Peter Smith plays his 200th game for Moonee Valley this Sunday, and is to be congratulated for sticking to his sport despite injury setbacks and weekend work commitments.

Pete (left) celebrates his milestone with the inclusion of brother Geoff and nephew Lachlan in the team.

Geoff and Lach live in Maryborough, but were keen to make the trip to play alongside Pete.

Postcode has been a stalwart for our afternoon teas for many seasons and is always happy to put his hand up to support our club.  Posty, we congratulate you.
