One of the most underrated players on the Saints’ list, Baker proved his value beyond any doubt on the game’s biggest stage when he negated Geelong’s Steve Johnson on Grand Final day. He kept the potential match-winner to just nine touches and minimal influence. Ranked in the club’s top 10 for tackles, Baker missed just one game last year in what was a brilliant return from a 2008 season ruined by injury.

Draft history: 1998 National AFL Draft 2nd round selection (St Kilda) No. 27 overall.
