A powerful runner capable of moving up to the wing or crashing packs inside, Watson found her niche as an uncompromising and intercepting defender, using her vision and drive to advance her side from defence to offence.
Watson announced herself to the competition in a big way in 2024, averaging a career-high 16 disposals and 340 metres gained to be named to the All-Australian squad as she showed why she was such a vital addition the year prior to the red, white and black.
Regarded for her leadership capabilities early in her career, the young Sun-turned-Saint has brought those to the fore at St Kilda, being inducted into the leadership group in 2024 before being upgraded to vice-captain for the side's 2025 campaign.
