AFL Odd Predictions For 2007
Some more important AFL predictions will be posted soon, here are 10 questions that are hard to answer and probably won't have any affect on which teams win games in 2007.
First team to replace their coach?
A coin-flip between the Kangaroos and Cats, maybe Geelong.
First player suspended for a regular season indiscretion?
The Power and Dockers should have a big opening game, Headland is a guess.
Which Nathan Brown will play the most games?
The Richmond one seems to be back to his best.
First player to kick a bag of goals, 10 or more?
Lloyd, in one of the first six rounds.
How many times will Max Rooke be called Jarad?
He will have to play before people mention him, maybe once a game people forget the name change.
Who will be the real "Mr Kennedy", the Carlton or Hawthorn version, for this season and over their entire career?
Hawthorn's Mr Kennedy is giving Carlton's a big head start so Carlton's should be better in 2007. Over their careers it will be a lot closer, maybe a slight edge to Carlton's Josh as he is the bigger player.
Who will have the most possessions in a game in 2007?
Sam Mitchell, might have a game or two with over 40 possessions. This would usually go to Scott West but he has a lot more help in the middle now.
Which "star" will unexpectedly find himself in the VFL?
Adem Yze might be the logical choice here, and there already has been some talk of it being possible.
What round will people stop mentioning Mother Hale when talking about David Hale?
The newspapers, who have covered some other AFL topics in the last week or two, have not mentioned Hale in recent times after giving his family a lot of coverage, but a TV commentator might be looking for something to talk about with Hale lining up for goal. It might get a mention in round 1 or 2.
What player will kick the most behinds in a game in 2007?
Maybe Fevola or Richardson, go with Fevola here as a twinge in his knee could affect his kicking in a game.
