From humble beginnings to legend status, from glory to heartbreak, through the good times and the bad... sydneyswans.com.au brings you 372 incredible games over 18 incredible seasons encapsulated in one ultimate photo gallery to celebrate the career of Adam Goodes.

Adam Goodes played for North Ballarat Rebels before Sydney swooped in the 1997 National Draft with Pick 43 if you don't mind! 372 games and an infinite list of feats later...an absolute steal!

Goodes debuted in Round 1, 1999. He would go on to play 20 games that season and win the AFL Rising Star Award!

One of 464 goal celebrations.

Remember when Goodesy was a ruckman? This contest with Dustin Fletcher was captured in 2001.

The first of two 'Charlies'. Goodesy announced himself on the AFL stage alongside Adelaide's Mark Ricciuto (left) and Collingwood's Nathan Buckley (middle) in 2003.

The most famous #37 in AFL/VFL history?

Goodesy's relief is evident after the Swans triumphed over Port Adelaide in the 2003 Qualifying Final.

Goodesy relaxes before training during the Swans' 2004 community camp in Newcastle.

Adam Goodes stands shoulder to shoulder (from left) with Barry Hall, Brett Kirk, Leo Barry, Jude Bolton and Ben Mathews at the SCG. All would rotate the captaincy throughout the 2005 season.

Goodesy would make some lifelong friends over the years. None closer than Michael O'Loughlin.

Glory.

From the euphoria of 2005...

...came the heartbreak of 2006. Goodes and Kirky experienced the highs and lows of AFL football together.

Goodesy was inspirational during the Swans v Eagles epics of '05 and '06.

Another 'Charlie' in 2006. Goodes is one of only 14 players to have won more than one Brownlow Medal.

The 'Big V' suited him. Goodes takes a screamer over Matthew Richardson during the 2008 Hall of Fame Tribute Match between Victoria and the Dream Team.

As did the royal blue of Australia. Goodesy leaps over his Irish opponent during the International Rules Series in 2010.

Where it all began. Goodesy learns the War Cry during the 2011 AFLPA Indigenous Camp at the National Indigenous Centre for Excellence in Sydney.

Goodesy shares a laugh with Swans stalwart Kenny Williams.

Goodesy and Lewis Jetta share a touching moment after the Swans' Round 11 clash with Brisbane at the Gabba in 2011.

A true champion.

Goodesy is chaired off Tasmania's Aurora Stadium after breaking the Club's games record in Round 5, 2012. It was the champ's 304th match.

That trademark dash...and on the biggest stage no less. Goodesy showed enormous courage in 2012 Grand Final.

Further glory in 2012.

A moment to savour.

Taking a stand in 2013.

On his right foot or his left - the man was gifted.

What a duo.

Taking part in "The Long Walk" in 2014. Goodesy, who was named Australian of the Year, was an advocate and role model for Indigenous people.

Goodesy is loved by supporters far and wide.

After 350 incredible games.

Unfortunately, there was no fairytale in 2014.

But Goodesy always held his head high in the face of defeat.

Pride in the heritage, pride in the jumper. Indigenous Round Launch 2015.

Goodesy's final goal on Saturday night.

He went out on his own terms.

There's only one Adam Goodes.
