10. Jack Steele
The Saints were one of the most exciting teams to watch in season 2020, and at the core of it all was 25-year-old midfielder Jack Steele.
The ex-Giant was huge for Brett Ratten's boys, taking out their best-and-fairest and guiding them to their first finals win in almost a decade. Steele was a tackling machine, being ranked fourth in total tackles, whilst also posting outstanding numbers in contested marks, pressure acts and contested possessions per game.
