The grounds of appeal consist of a list of reasons why the lower court decision is wrong or unjust. The skeleton argument is essentially an elaboration on your grounds of appeal in which you explain why your grounds of appeal have merit.
Keep your grounds of appeal as simple and concise as possible. You will get a chance to write a more detailed explanation of your arguments later in the court process.
