There are many facts and figures synonymous with the one and only Adam Goodes.

The number two, for example. Two premierships, two Brownlows.

The number three. Three Bob Skilton Medals. Only Paul Kelly, Peter Bedford, Herbie Matthews and the award's namesake have won more.

37. A number made famous by Goodes over 17 great seasons in the red and white guernsey.

372. The amount of matches Goodes played in that guernsey. It’s a number that promises to stand the test of time as the Swans' all-time games record. Jarrad McVeigh (266) is next in line but faces a steep climb.

We can go on, but for the sake of this piece we stop at 163.

That particular number, albeit minor in the scheme of Goodes' incredible career, will stick to the Swans champion forever following Monday night's count of the 2015 Brownlow Medal.

Under the mania surrounding Nat Fyfe's win at Melbourne's Crown Palladium, Goodes peered through to provide one last highlight on a night he's owned twice before.

It came in Round 9 against Carlton, Indigenous Round no less, with Goodes earning the one solitary vote.

That single nod of recognition from the umpires ends an amazing verse in the Brownlow narrative.

Only once in the past 15 years (in 2014) have AFL supporters failed to hear the words "Sydney, A. Goodes..." beamed over the microphone.

They've followed with "three votes" 30 times, the last time coming in that infamous 2013 clash against Collingwood at the MCG. He was still racking up big numbers (30 possessions, three goals) as a 33-year-old.

Three votes, two votes or one, they've all poured into a tally which will now rest at 163.

Only five current-day players have polled more votes while Goodes will rank 16th on the all-time list for a little while yet. Adelaide's Scott Thompson (138) and Geelong's Joel Selwood (137) will inevitably close the gap.

Bob Skilton is the only one to have polled more votes (180) than Goodes in the Swans' history books, understandably given Bobby is among a select group to have taken home three Brownlows.

And that's where Goodes will stay, for now at least, unless Josh Kennedy (82) and Dan Hannebery (79) can keep earning the umpires' praise in the post-Goodes era.
