Justin Koschitzke made his debut for the Saints in 2001 during Round 3 against West Coast, after being drafted with selection #2 overall in the 2000 AFL National Draft.

The versatile key position player was named the winner of the AFL’s Rising Star in 2001, and has since played 176 games and kicked 216 goals.

Justin continues to be an integral member of St Kilda’s top 22, returning after ankle surgery last year in Round 5 to provide great presence around the ground, and importantly assist in the side’s forward structure.

Drafted from the Murray Bushrangers, the 29-yearold has had one of his best pre-seasons for many years; feeling physically fit, strong and refreshed.

At this year’s Season Launch, Justin was awarded with Life Membership at the St Kilda Football Club.

When he isn’t playing football Justin loves to spend time with his son Jack and wife Alicia.
