Mitch Robinson’s successful 2015 season was recognised by his teammates when he took home the Players’ Player Award at this year’s Club Champion in September.

Each week the playing group were asked who they thought reflected the values for which they strive for within the team.

26-year-old, Robinson, has led the way with his fearless attack and has become a pivotal member of the Lions’ line-up.

“Firstly, I’d like to thank the boys, you’ve been great to me this year and my family. It was pretty hard coming up, obviously being delisted from Carlton and coming up here and meeting a new bunch of blokes.

“I say it after every main training, ‘I love the Club’,” Robinson said.

“I really appreciate the boys getting around me and getting me around for dinner even though it’s only once every now and then”, he laughed.

“Thanks to my partner Emma and my son Chance, they’ve made it enjoyable to come up here.”
