The 2010s have been a period of decline for the Saints, however many quickly forget about the successes of the team in the early part of the decade.

Many of their best players during the 2010s have unfortunately been away from the club for a considerable amount of time and at present, the Saints' list isn't really up to the standard of those in the past.

That being said, it is still tough to split the likes of Brendon Goddard, Nick Dal Santo, Nick Riewoldt and Leigh Montagna.

These rankings look specifically at the body of work of a particular player from the 2010 season onwards and our positioning of some of the greats of the St. Kilda footy club will likely cause much debate.

That being said, there were 10 players who stood out from the rest.

7. Jack Steven

Like his former teammate on this list, Seb Ross, Steven has had an extremely difficult 2019 season both on the field and off it.

Despite a down year, Saints fans still remember Steven for his consistently exciting performances dating all the way back to 2012.

While Steven has never fully established himself as a top A-grade midfielder, there are very few players in the league who can says they averaged over 20 touches a game for seven straight seasons.

Steven also came close to the mark in 2011, averaging 19.6 disposals in his first full year for the club.

Steven's bustling movement through stoppages has often led to him being the key in the St Kilda midfield, allowing him to break open games with speed.

It was only as recently as 2018, that Steven polled 18 Brownlow votes and put together a 27 touch per game season.

While Steven's best season is up for debate, the 180 centimetre midfielder averaged 27.9 disposals, 5.5 clearances and 5.6 tackles during the 2016 season, taking home the Saints Best and Fairest award to cap it all off.

With these remarkable performances, Steven cements his place in the top St Kilda players of the decade.
