Brownlow Medal round 20 predictor: Carlton gun joins leader; Melbourne mid continues form image

Round 20 saw all but one home team come away with the premiership points, as Melbourne staked their claims as the premier teams in the competition with a strong victory over Fremantle at Optus Stadium.

Collingwood made it 10-straight wins against Port Adelaide, while Geelong celebrated Joel Selwood's 350th in style.

Sydney's chances for top four have increased, taking care of cross-town rivals GWS by 73 points.

Richmond keep their finals chances alive after a come-back victory against Brisbane, who still haven't won at the MCG since 2014.

Adelaide surprised Carlton at home, defeating Michael Voss' team convincingly.

Sporting News' AFL experts have combined to produce a Brownlow predictor to figure out who might walk away with Charlie at season's end.
