The Robertson Spuddies have had an absolute stunning season in a difficult 2020.
As the Spuddies celebrated their 2020 premiership, their first since 2013, life members Nat Waters, Ken Sharpe and Peter Whatman, as well as Coaches Damien Barton and Jake Temporali presented the awards.

Two players had the honour of sharing the dual Clubman of the Year award; Matt Rolles and James Cox.
Rolles said it was great to win it along side Cox.
"It was a great feeling winning the award with the effort James and I put in," Rolles said.
"Winning the premiership and getting the award is an excellent season when I was just aiming to stay on the paddock and have a good time with the boys."
Cox couldn't attend the celebration night, but was ecstatic with the season and the award.
"The end of the year is always a bit busy for me and with the season pushed back to due to COVID, I couldn't make it to too many away games," Cox said.
"So I made it my mission to make it to the home games, help set up the field and see all the boys get a win.
"This is my tenth year playing, it's such a good club. We do love to win, but the club is all about being with your mates and having a good time.
"There's nothing better then winning a comp together and we can share that forever."
Both Rolles and Cox will be returning to the club for 2021, and they can't wait to see what the future of the club looks like.
"We're a small club and we don't make a big deal over the football side," Rolles said.
"The Spuddies are more about having a good time with your mates.
"But, to get a premiership under your belt is definitely a great feeling.
"I can't wait to get back in 2021.
"We have a few older players retiring, but that gives way for younger players and that's what it's all about."
