Standout

Round 1, 2020 (versus Brisbane Lions): Burgoyne's 11th season with Hawthorn and 20th season in the AFL started off on a high, when he finished one vote short in the Yabby medal voting for BOG in Hawthorn's great victory over the Lions at the MCG. Playing up forward, Burgoyne had 10 disposals and kicked three goals, while applying considerable pressure with four tackles. He and Wingard proved to be a great double-act for the Hawks in the forward line as the Hawks upset the Lions by 28 points at the MCG, albeit with no crowd in attendance.

Shocker

Round 5, 2020 (versus GWS Giants): It looked like time had finally caught up with Burgoyne, the oldest player in the league, when he had just six disposals for the game and gave away three free kicks as the Hawks surrendered to the Giants by 34 points at Giants Stadium in western Sydney. For so long Hawthorn's Mr Fix-it, Burgoyne simply couldn't get his game going and was one of six Hawthorn players to finish the game with less than 10 disposals by his name.
