With the season quickly approaching, and team lists being finalised ahead of Round 1, the media is quickly finalising their staff for the season ahead.

Fox Footy leads the AFL with their coverage their in-depth analogy, match previews and reviews as well as exclusive interviews during the week, and have added to what already was a strong line-up.

Ex-Melbourne and Premiership Sydney Swans coach, Paul Roos, along with Demons legend Gary Lyon, will join Jonathan Brown and Gerald Healy in the 2018 edition of On the Couch.

Lyon and Roos bring together over two decades of broadcasting, both of television and radio, along with 582-games experience.

The pair will replace the outgoing duo of Jason Dunstall and David King, who have been moved to higher roles within the organisation.

Roos, a respected football analytic, will return to the show after a previous stint in the 2014 season, before he took on the Melbourne coaching job.

The show will return to the screens on Monday March 19 at 8:30pm on Fox Footy.
