Saw this on the main board awhile back and thought we could have a bit of fun doing a Dockers one.

Sure Thing -
what is pretty much a given to happen that weekend. (team x loses, player y will kick 7 goals, umps will keep a close eye on...)

Most at Stake - Who has the most at stake this round, team, player coach ect.

Doomsday Scenario - Not always what you think will happen, but in fact what is the worst scenario happening. (Team losing, low crowds, injury ect)

Mine:

Sure Thing
Ballas to kick 4 goals on the way to a healthy boost to our percentage.

Most at Stake
Colin Sylvia - with a few returns imminent he has to perform well to cement himself in the squad.

Doomsday
Dawson gets injury leaving us without our three best defenders against the Weagles.
 
Sure Thing
Hill will not be tagged again and run riot

Most at Stake
Colin Sylvia - Needs a big match.

Doomsday
Crowley will tag Rockliff out the game, forcing him to the forward pocket limiting his DT score to 69 and stuffing up my dream team.
 
Sure Thing:
Zac Clarke to kick a couple, run all day and show why he is the best #2 in the comp.

Most at Stake:
Colin Sylvia - Will need more than 3 pos as sub to really prove his worth. With Mora / Croz / Sherro all offering more as sub, he needs a good game to silence the h8rs.

Doomsday:
Russian's invade and release a balck hole creating weapon which unmakes the world.

Sure Thing:
Fremantle will be tested by Brisbane early and stem the flow to put on a 60 point lead at some stage. We'll then end up winning by 40-50 points.

Most at Stake:
As others mentioned; Sylvia's performance. If he has the full 4 qtrs of game time, the bar will be set high.

Doomsday:
The changes thread for the derby started before the end of game. WE'LL ALL BE ROONED.
 
Sure Thing - We'll win but we'll blow what could be a huge percentage booster to register a 35 point victory

Most at Stake - Sylvia. He's got to prove he was worth being picked over the AFL's feel good story Anthony Morabito.

Doomsday Scenario - Sandi accidently running through Pav and both being stretchered off. :eek:
 
Sure Thing - Brisbane to kick no more than 5 goals for the game, including 3 in the last quarter

Most at Stake - Clanceee... In and out of the side all year, didnt exactly rip it up at Peel in the last couple of games but given another chance. Morabito and Grey breating down his neck (and no doubt Sherro again, after another 30 possession game in the WAFL)

Doomsday Scenario - Heavy rain/wind making the game closer than it should be forcing us to put more effort into the win than would otherwise be needed.
 
ROUND 15

Sure Thing:

We will show the Weagles what an elite midfield looks like.

Most at Stake:
Fringe players at Freo - With so many knocking on the door they wouldn't want to have a quiet game.

Doomsday:
Nic NotaCluey takes a mark. We could beat them by 200 points but you wouldn't even know about it because the commentators would still be going on about Nic Nat and his X factor.
 
Sure Thing:
Coxy's well rested flailing arms to go to new levels this week.. resulting in dislocation around the half way mark of the 3rd quarter

Most at Stake:
Sounds simple, but Fremantle as a whole.. this is one of the "Sure wins" which has a slight possibility of being upset if WC finally figure out how to kick to their tall forwards.

Doomsday:
Colin Sylvia has a quiet game or makes a monumental error.. resulting in outcry from the fans and media that Morabito should be there instead.
 
Sure Thing:
The eagles will move the ball slowly and then bomb it long too there out numbers tall forwards and then play them for not kicking 20 goals to win the match.

Most at Stake:
Fremantle - A must win game to keep there top 2 chances alive.

Doomsday:
Depth players - we have 3-4 players waiting in the wings with another 3-4 coming back from injury, everybody needs to show what they can do.
