Ross was recruited by the club with draft pick 25 in the 2011 national draft. He made his debut in round 22 of the 2012 season against Greater Western Sydney at Docklands Stadium.[1]

Ross was one of the league's most consistent midfielders between 2016 and 2019, averaging at least 26 disposals per game each year. In 2016, Ross received the Ian Stewart Medal for best on ground in the Saints' round 22 victory over Richmond.[2] In 2017 and 2019 he won the Trevor Barker Award for St Kilda's best and fairest,[3] and was selected in the All-Australian 40-man squad in 2017.[4]

After 13 games in 2024, Ross was delisted by St Kilda, and he announced his intentions to continue his AFL career at another club.[5]
