So like all ideas in sport, you get the full spectrum of reactions.
But ultimately, I think it's what the team stands for when they take the field.
If they take the field and they're terrible and they finish last, well, clearly the decision is going to be that it was a bad idea amongst the fans.
If they take the field and win it, then I think the view will probably be, well, imagine if we had been a unified Victorian team for the last 15 years, we probably would have won the Big Bash every year.
And I think that's the reality of sport.
It's up to us to fulfil the promise.
It depends on what metric you use.
I mean, obviously, I think that we would have liked the Victorian teams to have won more titles, considering how successful both the men and women's team were when they played as Victoria.
then going into a split model.
But from an attendance perspective, from a membership perspective, from a sponsorship perspective, the teams have been incredibly successful.
You only have to look at the derbies every year to see that we get the biggest attendance game every year.
It shows the level of passion for the Big Bash and what that's been built over 15 years by my team, but also the people before us.
So, yeah, it depends on what measure...
You use, if it's titles, it hasn't been as successful as we'd like.
If it's any other metric, I think it's been unbelievably successful.
Yes, I do.
So I think there's two things.
We had one game, I think, with the old Big Bash when we were playing as Victoria where we had 80,000 to the MCG.
So I think it's possible to achieve big crowds without it being a derby.
But the other point to impress is that there will be another Melbourne team.
