Cameron Smith Immortalised In Iconic Melbourne Laneway

Ahead of Cameron Smith's record breaking 356th NRL appearance, the Melbourne Storm, Queensland and Australian captain has been immortalised in graffiti art in Melbourne's iconic Hosier Lane. 

The murial painted by Aaron McAviney, told nrl.com he wanted to make it as recognisable as possible to all visitors of the iconic laneway.

"I wanted to do it is as large as possible on the wall to signify how big and how monumental the achievement is," McAviney said.

"People were filming it and taking photos, and a lot of them recognised it was him even when I was sketching it and doing the base coats, but they didn't really know about the record so it was good to create a bit of hype, and they were keen to watch the game this weekend."
