Loose forward Liam Messam is set to become just the eighth player in Super Rugby history to play 150 matches when he takes to the field for the Chiefs this weekend.
Although Messam says raising the milestone in Saturday's clash against the South African side the Bulls in Hamilton is yet to get his pulse racing.
Messam has signed a two‑year contract with the franchise, extending a relationship which began in 2006.
The all‑time record is currently held by Blues great Keven Mealamu who played 175 Super Rugby matches.
The Highlanders meet the Rebels at 6.35pm tomorrow, the Blues face Western Force at 4.15pm Saturday, the Chiefs clash with the Bulls at 6.35pm Saturday and the Waratahs will face the Crusaders at 6.05pm Sunday.
