Sean Dempster joined St Kilda at the end of the 2007 season from the Sydney Swans after being recruited in the 2002 National Draft as pick #36 under the father-son rule.

The low-key stopper debuted in his first AFL game in Round 3, 2005 against Brisbane Lions and later that year was a part of Sydney’s 2005 Grand Final premiership team.

He has since played in four more Grand Finals, one more for Sydney and another three for the Saints. Sean originally hails from the coastal Victorian town of Mallacoota. The East Gippslander played junior football with the Snowy Rovers Football Club in Orbost, beginning his football career at 15 years of age.

In 2011, Dempster had his best year in Saints colours finishing third in the Club’s Best and Fairest and winning the Robert Harvey Most Professional Player Award.

The hard working tagger was pivotal for the Saints in successfully negating the influence of opposition danger men.

Outside football, Sean is studying a Bachelor of Science at Deakin University.
