Crystal Ball 2020: Your predictions for next season

Featured Replies

We’re back again boys and girls. Time to rub your balls and lay down your predictions for 2020. For those who aren’t too scarred after last year.

Team or player. Good or bad. Coke or Pepsi. The ball gazer closest to the pin with their quality and/or quantity of accurate predictions will win the heralded Demonland Crystal Ball.

Brutal Josh... another Prelim loss oh dear!... I was at Waverley the day Jimmy... not another loss. 

 

Yes, a tad scarred after the last predictions. Going light early on.

Harmes to join the leadership group.

Pickett nominated for goal of the year. 

5th

Prelim exit

Bennell to play round 3

Petracca to have a woeful year and be traded.

I know it's only a prediction but there is no logic in Trac's one.

More likely to be an AA than above.

And to make a Prelim we would have needed him to star.

Dee's to win flag

Jackson wins rising star

Brayshaw wins the 2020 Brownlow

 

 

Melbourne 5th

Brownlow medal P Cripps

Grand final winner GWS

Standout season by Gawn, Oliver, Brayshaw and lever

Raising Star Rowell 


Youthfulness and inexperience will limit how far we go, so no premiership. But we will at times put the fear of god into other teams.

How about we wait to see whether the pre-season s 'interrupted'?

Dees make it to the GF against Brisbane Lions  

Go into the final quarter with a 35 point lead. 

Extend that lead by kicking the first four goals, stretching it to a 59 point, unassailable lead. Tears begin welling in the eyes of all Demons supporters. 

Two minutes till full time. 

Aliens arrive out of nowhere and begin attacking the earth. 

Nobody hears the final siren over the panic. 

Turns out there was a whole planet of aliens who were Demons supporters and they only came to celebrate. Melbourne membership goes to a record 2.3 million in 2021 with a new category, intergalactic membership.

As i have said for the last 49 years....

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

Finals appearance with at least one win feels like about par given 17 18 & 19.  Anything less a bogey.  Anything more a birdie etc.

2021/22 premiership window should be well open (subject to injuries and 2020 coaching /player efforts/performance).

 

Dees to finish 5th

Make it to another prelim

The penny to drop for Petracca

Clarry,Maxy & Trac AA

Jackson 2nd in Rising star

We all fall in love with Kozzy

????

Dees to finish top 4 regular season and make a prelim

Fritsch to kick 40+ goals

Petracca to have a breakout year and average 100+ supercoach points

Pickett to take a mark of the year contender

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    It’s Game Day, and 205 days have passed since the final siren sounded at the MCG, bringing Melbourne’s 2025 season to a close and marking the end of an era. In just a few hours, a new chapter begins for the Demons. What are you most hoping to see from Melbourne today?

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
