It's crazy to think that Colm Cooper has been playing for over ten years at intercounty level and only turned 30 yesterday. To mark his big birthday milestone we have a collection of photos from his career thus far.
He might have turned 30, but he is excelling in his role at centre forward this season.
This is one of the many important goals Cooper has scored over the years for Kerry.
It took a while but Cooper and Kerry finally got the better of Tyrone in a championship encounter.
Joe Brolly once called Cooper a choker, but surely a man of his complexion stepping out in the sun has some guts?
Gooch had the honour of lifting the Sam Maguire with Declan O'Sullivan in 2006
Cooper's stature in the game is such that he attends a varitey of photoshoots. Although why would someone think the deck of a ship is a good idea?
He is also in the 0.1% portion of the population to have been on the Dublin eye.
This photo from 2002 is proof that Cooper has been around for a long time.
