Arguably the best utility player in the league, Goddard plays a variety of crucial roles for the Saints up forward, through the midfield and down back.

 He is renowned for his outstanding marking abilities, kicks goals and always accumulates disposals. The Saints will be looking for another big year from their polished two time All-Australian.

Brendon was selected by St Kilda with the first pick in the 2002 AFL Draft from the Gippsland Power (TAC Cup). He debuted for the Saints in the 2003 season while completing his VCE as a Year 12 student at Caulfield Grammar.

 During high school, Goddard was an accomplished sportsman, co-captaining the school’s First XVIII football team and co-captaining the First XI cricket team as a batsman and pace bowler.

 At the end of the 2011 season, Brendon underwent hip surgery, returning to full pre-season training in late November.

In February 2012, Brendon was named in St Kilda’s 2012 Leadership Group.
