Dan Butler

Ahead of season 11, Dan Butler is still proving how valuable he truly is to the Saints and their mosquito fleet.
Pairing with fellow pocket Jack Higgins, Butler’s ability to find the big sticks out of nothing continues to excite the Saints faithful, kicking 13 goals in 2024 and laying over three tackles a game, showcasing his manic pressure when the ball hits the ground.
After trading his sash for stripes ahead of 2020, the Premiership Tiger first burst onto the scene in Saints colours during that year’s COVID-affected season, ramming home 29 goals in the abbreviated matches to earn selection in the All-Australian squad by season's end.
