The year was 1966 ... the Grand Final:- between Collingwood and St. Kilda:
Only 1 minute to go, scores were level ... when suddenly, Barry Breen scooped up the ball and snapped a point, and St Kilda won by just the solitary point.
So, even then, they just scraped home by the single solitary point and Barry Breen may remain their hero forever!

Will St Kilda ever win another premiership in the Australian Football League?
It is almost certain that St. Kilda will eventually win another premiership. St Kilda has gone the third longest of any team in the AFL without a premiership. Only the Western Bulldogs (previously, Footscray) and Melbourne Demons have gone longer. In 2009, two of these teams were in the top 3 favourites to win the premiership, which posed a great, exciting finish to the season. St Kilda were 'every chance' to win the flag, which would have been a long time between drinks; but 2009 wasn't to be, though could still have been just the start to a new era in the St Kilda Football Club's history. Hi, 3.14159...etc! St. Kilda were (after 20 rounds) still undefeated in 2009, but didn't finish undefeated. They let their form slip at the crucial moment, and paid the ultmate price - the Grand Final loss. Many had their eyes also on the mighty Pies near the season's end and thought they might give'em all a huge fright come Grand Final day, but that wasn't to be either, as Geelong finally came home with the bacon, turning out Premiers - another club which had only won the one premiership over more than 40 years before 2009. Nevertheless, there's always next Year Sainters! :-) Given this year's, solid, preparatory lead up, there is always a great chance for a premiership from them for the year 2010! ;) St Kilda will get it in 2010 Egg on face, much?
