That larger-than-life, infectious personality has been second-to-none in building St Kilda’s tight-knit group from ground up, while her on-field leadership has been just as vital.
The spiritual leader and co-captain assumed whatever role her team needed her to fulfil, with her selfless approach and team-first mentality helping her side on countless occasions throughout the year.
Blanket jobs in defence on high-profile key forwards paired excellently with her industrious performances in the ruck; the latter of which were integral in setting the tone for St Kilda’s young midfield.
The diehard Sainter’s versatility resulted in her finishing in the top-three for the club’s total intercepts, clearances and contested marks, along with the number one ranking for contested possessions.
Watt finished Season 2021 fourth in the club’s Best & Fairest count after a top-10 placing in her debut year as a Saint.
With Hannah Priest taking the reins as captain ahead of the 2022 NAB AFLW Season, Watt was appointed as co-vice-captain alongside Kate Shierlaw.
