Yesterday's win was our fourth by under a goal in 2019. The last and only time St Kilda has won four games by under a kick in a single season was 1928.
In 1928 we also lost one game by under a kick. We've done likewise in 2019.
In 1928 we missed the finals by percentage. A possibility in 2019.
In 1929 we made the finals.
Close wins show that a team has some ticker and knows how to win. Although some of those close wins haven't been pretty, good teams win on bad days.
1928
