Injuries have held back Terlich in his senior career at Henty, but he's glad to reach another milestone.
"It's been a long time coming in a sense. I've had a knee operation and a shoulder operation in my time at Henty," Terlich said.
"I started playing senior football at the time as Jimmy Ellis and he's played 200, but I spent three years at Wagga as well."
The 2014 premiership win against Rand-Walbundrie has been the highlight, but he hopes more success isn't too far away after the Swampies' promising start to the season to boast a 6-2 record and sit third after eight rounds.

"I think I had seven relatives play in that grand final. It's been a good feeling around the club, it's probably got back to being a local team again," Terlich said.
"We sort of went away from that for a couple of years and it didn't really work for us in the long run.
"We played against Culcairn in round four and I think there was only two blokes that didn't play juniors for Henty.
"Heath (senior coach Heath Ohlin) didn't play juniors there, but he's been there that long he's a local now and the same goes for Beau Connell."
The sharp shooter is equal leader in the league's goal-kicking standings with 26 from his five games after a bag of 11 against Howlong last weekend.
