Between them, they have four AFL Premierships, two club best-and-fairests, an All Australian and a combined 572 games.

The stats, the facts and everything else you need to know about our five new Saints.

Bradley Hill

Arguably the most prized asset of the 2019 Trade Period, Bradley Hill found his home at St Kilda after three seasons at Fremantle. 

The triple Premiership Hawk and Doig Medallist has claim to one of the most impressive set of wheels in the league, hitting a remarkable top speed of 34.88km/h last season. 

Blistering speed and elite endurance on the outside, coupled with his high disposal numbers and clean execution, will bring an immediate change to the Saints’ on-ball brigade. 

Dougal Howard

He only has 45 games to his name, but the excitement around Dougal Howard is off the charts.

The Port swingman boasts incredible versatility and leadership at just 23 years old; his standing at Alberton reflected when he served as stand-in captain for one game in 2019.

Strong in the air and only improving with age, the key position talent looks to command the Saints’ defence for years to come.

Paddy Ryder

Players of Paddy Ryder’s calibre will be absolutely crucial to the Saints' future.

The 2017 All Australian ruckman will play a vital role in honing Rowan Marshall’s ruck craft, as well as providing a tall marking option up forward. 

With 243 games under his belt and the success to back it up, Ryder’s experience, versatility and wisdom will be invaluable as the red, white and black look to surge up the ladder.

Zak Jones

St Kilda identified a need for speed heading into 2020, and Zak Jones fitted the bill perfectly. 

The lightning-quick Swan provides aggression, physicality and grunt to the Saints’ engine room, with his hardness at the contest unchanging across his six seasons at the elite level. 

When paired with the likes of Bradley Hill and Jack Billings on the outside, St Kilda’s wingmen – and midfield – are set to soar heading into a new season.

Dan Butler

Elite forward pressure and a knack for handy goals make Dan Butler an incredibly damaging asset to St Kilda’s attack. 

A Premiership Tiger in his debut season, the small forward will be hoping to bring the same success to the Saints during the next chapter of his career. 

With a player of Butler’s ability at the feet of Tim Membrey, Paddy Ryder and Max King, the forward line just got a lot more dangerous.
