On the eve of the season all the boards are loaded with prediction threads for the year ahead. On team board such as this they seem to mostly be positive and optimistic, but being the slightly pessimistic chap that I am, I figured I would skew the idea a bit. So, what's your call (or random prediction) on the following questions? -
1. Who's going to go down with a major injury this year?
2. In which round will Michael Gardiner re-injure himself?
3. How many senior games will Michael Gardiner play for the season?
4. When he has recovered from his current injury (3 or so weeks away), Will Travis Gaspar re-injure himself this season?
5. Of players that played over 15 games in '03, who is most likely to drop out the side and barely get a start? (Think Chambers and Collica in '03)
6. Who will do the opposite and claim a place in the team? (a positive one!)
7. Which youngster will not quite cut it at senior level when given the opportunity this season?
8. Is this Drew Banfield's last season?
9. Which will be the loss that seems like "the one that got away" at the seasons end?
10. And finally, the biggie - who will NOT be an Eagle in '05 ?
Bit pessimistic thinking about such things, but hey, it's not like any of the things listed can't happen.
Yes I know it's thinking too far ahead, but just give it a stab, and we'll see who can curse certain players/games when I drag this back up at the end of the year (if I remember to..)
Feel free to add your own questions.
