---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GRAND FINALS:
8 players out of my 22 have played in a Grand Final, the list includes;

Harry Moyes: (1926)
Ian Cooper: (1966)
Rodger Head: (1966)
Brian Mynott: (1966)
Neil Besanko: (1971)
Barry Hall: (1997, 2005)
Brendon Goddard: (2009, 2010, 2010 replay)
Zac Dawson: (2009, 2010, 2010 replay)

There are five premiership players, Ian Cooper (who would have won the Norm Smith medal had it existed), Rodger Head and Brian Mynott for the Saints, and Moyes with Melbourne and Hall with Sydney.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CAPTAINS:
Of the 22 players, four of them have officially captained the St Kilda Football Club for a total of 5 seasons, though at least in Hamill's case, it almost certainly should have been more.

They are;

Vic Barwick: 2 seasons of captaincy.
Colin Watson: 1 season of captaincy.
Ian Stewart: 1 season of captaincy.
Aaron Hamill: 1 season of captaincy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BROWNLOWS:
There are two Brownlow Medallists, both in the midfield.

Ian Stewart: 2 Brownlows (1965, 1966)
Colin Watson: 1 Brownlow (1925)

There are also plenty of other high finishers, but some of the records back-when are a bit scanty.

And Jack Davis came 3rd in 1933 and won the VFA Recorder Medal in 1940.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BEST AND FAIREST AWARDS:
Four Best and Fairest winners play for the side, with 7 between them.

Colin Watson: 1924.
Harold Comte: 1933
Jack Davis: 1934, 1935 and 1937.
Ian Stewart: 1964 and 1966.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALL AUSTRALIAN SELECTIONS:
All Australian teams have only been put together on a consistent yearly basis since 1991. Before then they were selected as All Australians most often every few years in the ‘State of Origin’ or ‘Carnival’ era. Nevertheless, the idea started in 1947, so Colin Watson (a Brownlow medalist), Jack Davis (a three-time Best and Fairest) and some mighty fine others are too 'old' for the award, and a couple - Hamill and Maguire chiefly - were absolutely robbed at times.

Ian Stewart: 1966.
Barry Hall: 2004, 2005, 2006, 2010.
Brendon Goddard: 2009, 2010.

Two Saints players total (out of 15 possible) with All Australian selections between them, not counting Hall's at Sydney.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STATE REPRESENTATIVES:
*in terms of separate seasons representing them, not separate games. 1 time = 1 season he got selected for that team.

Jack Davis: 10 time Victoria Representative.
Colin Watson: 8 time Victoria Representative
Ian Stewart: 4 time Victoria Representative.
Eric Guy: 3 time Victoria Representative.
Vic Barwick: 1 time Victoria Representative.
Harold Comte: 1 time Victoria Representative.
Ian Cooper: 1 time Victoria Representative (picked but didn't play due to illness).

7 players from the Barbarians are all that my research could confirm, with 28 seasons of representative football between them. Hamill, Hall and others miss due to AFL players being excluded from 1999 onwards, although Goddard missing from the 2008 Hall of Fame Tribute match was absolutely criminal.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEADING GOALKICKERS AT ST KILDA:

6 players have been our club leading goal kicker at some point, with 12 seasons total between them.

Harry Moyes: 1915, 1921, 1922, 1923.
Jack McDonald: 1949, 1952, 1955.
Barry Hall: 1999, 2000.
Vic Barwick: 1909.
Bob Flegg: 1941.
Bill Stephenson: 1961.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ST KILDA TEAM OF THE CENTURY:
Only one player from the Barbarians makes it into St Kilda's team of the century;

Ian Stewart: centreman
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ST KILDA HALL OF FAME:
Only four players from the Barbarians have been inducted into the Saints' hall of fame. They are;

Ian Stewart (Legend status)
Jack Davis
Brian Mynott
Colin Watson

Though others, such as Cooper, are likely to follow in due course.
