Collingwood Magpies vs Essendon Bombers Preview
The traditional ANZAC Day game between Collingwood and Essendon is sure to attract another huge crowd and there is plenty on the line for both sides.
Fair to say both teams would be pretty disappointed with how they’ve started the season.
Collingwood are the better team but are really suffering with injuries which opens the door for Essendon who have shown glimpses of brilliance at times.
Sticking with Collingwood here but this should be another cracking ANZAC Day game.
