As both the players and their coaches continue their strides in season 2021, distinctive groups have broken out throughout the race.

Some, like the Bulldogs and Demons, have dashed from the starter's gun, with the desire to create lightyears between themselves and the pack.

Sadly for others, they are barely attached to the peloton anymore.

Whether first, second, third or 18th along the road to the last Saturday in September, every side and their side coaching team still have question marks over their head.

Melbourne

Is this the club's biggest game since the 2018 Preliminary Final?

Succinctly, yes. Yes, it is.

And don't let this fact frighten you, Melbourne fans. It should excite you.

Your club has quite rightly been lauded across the season's first five weeks, and should they tame the Tigers on Saturday night, and start their season one better than the boys of '94, then I can only imagine how tough it will be for you to keep your lid attached.

Still, if the rollicking Richmond juggernaut rolls over the top of your boys, just know that you are all adept at navigating the seas of disappointment, and that your side's chances of claiming a double chance for the first time in three years are still going to better than a 50/50 chance.
