A host of Sydney Swans players are set to battle it out for the revered Bob Skilton Medal as the 2020 Club Champion next Thursday. 

In a change from tradition the event will be held at the SCG and streamed through the Sydney Swans website and mobile app.

Despite missing the final six matches of the season will it be back to back for co-captain Dane Rampe?

Has Tom Papley done enough to take out his first ever Skilton Medal?

Will Luke Parker’s midfield dominance see him take home the award for a third time? Or Jake Lloyd for a second time?

We look at some of the top contenders for the 2020 Bob Skilton Medal.

Brick wall Mills provides big bump

James Aish would be sore after being on the receiving end of this bump from Callum Mills

Callum Mills
In a season when experienced players were out for long periods with injury the experience and class of Mills was on full display. Despite spending majority of the season in defence Mills did move to the midfield with success in periods throughout the season. His toughness and hardness at the contest was once again a highlight of his game in one of his most consistent seasons at AFL level.

Lloyd proud of 150 milestone

Jake Lloyd spoke to SwansTV as he is set to become the fastest Swans player to reach the 150 game milestone.

Jake Lloyd
Lloyd had another consistent season as one of the constants in the Swans defence for the entire season playing all 17 matches. He once again was the leading disposal winner for the season for the Swans ranking him third overall in the competition for the season. Lloyd took the most marks and had the most kicks of any Swans player in 2020. Having won his first Bob Skilton Medal in 2018 can Lloyd add a second medal to his accolades?

Masterful Papley handball ends in Rowbottom goal

Brilliant hands from Tom Papley to set up James Rowbottom

James Rowbottom
Could the young Swan be a bolter for the Bob Skilton Medal after an impressive second season in the AFL. Rowbottom missed just one game and took on a more prominent role in the Swans midfield with his ability to provided toughness around the football a cornerstone of his game. Finished the season behind only Luke Parker and Josh Kennedy for clearances in a season that continued to highlight the rapid development of the impressive inside midfielder.
