Rodney Hogg predicted Warnes 500 wickets

And was sacked for his pains. Here is the story in his own words.

"Hogg made a prediction in his column in the
Truth newspaper. 'I got the calculator out, multiplied a hundred by five and
came up with 500, and wrote an article saying Shane Warne would take 500
wickets.' He was sacked. 'I got the sack from Truth newspaper because they
reckoned I was writing a load of crap — the paper was full of crap! Maybe they
knew I was about 200 wickets short.'"


Yeah! Possibly he got sacked for getting it 200 short.
