I think so.
The big team.
No, it's going to be great.
I mean, it doesn't matter what day it arrives on.
This one's a Saturday, so there are lots of other games.
But the eyeballs days are always on the MCG.
Yeah, they certainly are.
And I think Essendon and their fans will be pretty excited about their prospects and their chances on the day.
So the two last games in the half against the Western Bulldogs.
So 10 quarters of footy they've put together, which is probably a decent enough sample size.
They kicked 42 goals.
42?
42 goals in those 10 quarters.
What a Collingwood kick.
23 in the same amount of time.
There you go.
There's a little bit of a theory I have with Collingwood, and obviously scoring has been slowing down and hasn't been to high levels.
No.
Which gives you every chance to win the game, obviously, but it also keeps the opposition in the game for long enough to win it if they can kick two or three very quick ones.
So it's a dangerous way to play.
