Jack Sinclair is the perfect example of how a change in mindset can bring about the best results.

The luscious-locked Saint had overcome his setbacks after earning his place on an AFL list via the Rookie Draft, but was thrown a new and unexpected challenge after the former mainstay was dropped at the start of the COVID-affected 2020 Season.

Whereas the old Sinclair would have "sooked it up", a shift in attitude - coupled with his willingness to prove himself to his new coaches - initiated his career-defining transformation. 

From that point on, the No. 35 has risen above the difficulties and hardships that have come his way, becoming one of St Kilda's most impressive and skilled players in 2022 to find himself in All-Australian contention.

Despite admitting he felt like he hadn't earned his place up until this current season, Sinclair has gone on to prove that enough willpower and determination can be the catalyst to turn the tide back in one's favour.
