After a year out of the game and after a difficult start to his time at Linen House Centre, key defender Jake Carlisle repaid the faith in 2017, establishing himself as a crucial cog in St Kilda’s back six.
The former Essendon swingman played all 22 games in his first proper season, reaching the century against Richmond in St Kilda’s stunning win at Etihad Stadium in Round 16.
Alongside former Collingwood premiership full back Nathan Brown, the pair tamed the opposition monsters, while helping propel rebounding defenders like Dylan Roberton and Jimmy Webster into career-best seasons.
Following such a long absence from football, it took Carlisle a little bit of time to pick up the pace. But just like former teammates Michael Hurley, Michael Hibberd and Paddy Ryder, who all returned from suspension to produce career-best years, Carlisle demonstrated his class in 2017.
The 25-year-old was one of the Saints’ most consistent performers this season and is set to feature prominently in next month’s Trevor Barker Award.
Performance of the year:
Round 19 v Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval: 16 disposals, nine spoils, eight intercept marks, eight contested possessions and six rebound 50s + eight coaches votes
Alan Richardson’s views:
“With his ability to not only defend his own man but help his teammates defend, Jake was a real strength for our team down back,” Richardson said.
“Jake was really keen to come in and earn respect through his actions.
“He was able to achieve that on and off the field through his dedication to his preparation, his commitment to his teammates, and through his performance on game-day.
“We’ve all seen the talent Jake possesses and he is entering the age demographic where players usually play their most consistent footy, but there was the unknown of how he would go after such a long period out of the game.
“We weren’t surprised by the level of football he was able to play, but when you factor in the break, it probably exceeded our expectations to get 22 games at that standard out of him.”
The numbers:
22 games
14.4 disposals
7.5 intercept possessions
6.0 marks
2.3 rebound 50s

I thought Billings might be more important given that if Carlisle got hurt we have Goddard , Logan and Oscar to back him up .
Can’t wait for 2018 season.

Don’t shoot the messenger.
Irrespective of the actual result it does show that Jake has been able to worm his way into the hearts of the fans.
His marking ability down back, his pin point passing out of the back half, quickly showed his worth. And all on the back of an interrupted preseason and a year off.
Hopefully he is an improver in 2018 too.

Jake Carlisle is confident the Saints can bounce back from a disappointing Round 2 loss.
The 26-year-old said being ruthless, showing care for each other, and playing without fear was the key to responding to the loss to the Kangaroos.
"Our method works, and it showed against Richmond and GWS last year when we played without fear, with ruthlessness and with care for each other,” Carlisle told saints.com.au.
"There are times when we're not going to get it right, but we've just got to shorten the gap.
"We know how consistent we have to be and we've just got to get back to playing our brand of footy."
A general in defence, Carlisle was a shining light for the Saints on what was a forgettable day at Etihad Stadium.
The defender had 17 disposals, 11 marks and six rebound 50ms in the loss to North Melbourne.
"As a defensive group, all we can do is clean our own backyard - fight and scrap to try and win our one-on-ones or try and get back to intercept,” Carlisle said.
"The aim is to keep fighting, get the ball out of defence and back going our way.”
Get your halo on for 2018
An impromptu meeting on Saturday morning led by Coach Alan Richardson and Captain Jarryn Geary became an opportunity for the Saints to regroup ahead of Round 3's clash with the Crows.
"We got together to do recovery and just had a few conversations to reassure where we're at," he said.
"The leadership from Gears has been phenomenal. His form in the first two rounds has been strong as well.
"It wasn't a great performance on Friday and there are a few things that we can fix up. We just wanted to get everyone on the same page and get the season going our way."
Carlisle has worked closely with new backline coach Henry Playfair, who joined the Saints this off-season after six years as an assistant with the Sydney Swans.
"He's someone I look up to. The way he sees the game and the way he helps us as a group is great," Carlisle said.
"He's developed guys at Sydney who were good one-on-one players who were able to scrap when under the pump - so he's been able to bring that experience and add that mentality to stay switched on no matter what the contest is.
"We've got to find a way to either win it back or stop them from scoring."
Go Sainters.
