St Kilda is pleased to advise Jack Sinclair will remain in the red, white and black until at least the end of 2021, after inking a two-year deal this week.
In his fifth year at the club, the elite runner has been one of the Saints’ most consistent performers over the first four rounds.
A strong pre-season put the versatile 24-year-old in great shape to continue to build on the form displayed over the past two seasons.

“I just love every opportunity I’m given to pull on the jumper. I’m proud to be a Saint and so very happy to be committed for another two years,” he said.
“It’s been an encouraging start to the year, but I just want to keep playing my role and helping the team improve.
“I really believe in what we’re building and I can’t wait to get stuck in and see where it can take us.”
St Kilda List Manager James Gallagher said Sinclair was an important part of the club’s future.
“Jack forms part of an integral cohort of players in that 50-100 games played bracket,” Gallagher said.

“It’s players like him that will lead this club moving forward, so it’s encouraging to have him re-sign and show how much he wants to be a part of it.
“Jack’s speed and ball use is really important to us and I know how hard he works on his game and how desperate he is to become more consistent.”
Sinclair joined the Saints with pick No.1 in the 2014 Rookie Draft. He has played 68 games for the club since his debut in Round 1 2015 against Greater Western Sydney.
