Ohh, where does it say that? Because I do think Hagrid could be the 
Half Blood Price. He plays a large-ish role (no pun intended) in COS.

My other theories for books 6 & 7 are coming from readers instinct, 
there are certain well-worn paths that writers usually follow and I 
feel JKR has done a good job of foreshadowing

Dumbledore will die, or be as if dead when he is most needed. This is 
the whole Obi Wan thing. It is written many times that the Trio will be 
safe and that Hogwarts will be safe as long as Dumbledore is around and 
that Dumbledore is the only wizard VM fears. So it makes sense for JK 
to raise the stakes near the end and take Dumbledore out of the 
picture.

Harry will die - but not for good. His death will be part of defeating 
VM and we will all be scared and shed a tear but then Harry will be 
brought back - "Yay!" all the children will cheer.

Sirius is not really dead. Where is the body? I have watched too many 
movies and tv shows  to believe in a death without a body. If he was 
really really permanently dead then there would have been a body and a 
funeral.

Refutes?
