The St Kilda Saints are one of the oldest AFL teams in the league, having been formed in 1873. They were one of the original foundation teams of the VFL (Victorian Football League) when it began in 1897, later becoming the AFL.

St Kilda have won a single premiership to date, a famous one-point win in the 1966 VFL Grand Final. St Kilda most recently won the minor premiership in the 2009 AFL season and were grand finalists in 2009 and 2010.

St Kilda have developed a reputation as ‘perennial underachievers’ due to their history of finishing last more often than any other club in the league (27 times), as well as having the second-lowest all-time win percentage of any team still playing in the league.

This ragtag team has a band of loyal followers, otherwise known as ‘Saints Army’, who follow St Kilda with unwavering belief. Like their team’s mascot, they’re known for their resilience and tenacity.

St Kilda's home ground is currently Marvel Stadium, one of Melbourne’s prominent AFL stadiums. However, it used to be Moorabbin Oval and the Junction Oval.
