Former Essendon star Tim Watson has revealed the plans for Channel Nine's Footy Classified this year.

Watson said the show will run twice a week, on Mondays and Wednesdays, with Collingwood president Eddie McGuire and former Dockers coach Ross Lyon set to feature.

The triple-premiership Bomber said Lyon will also work for Triple M.

“I’ve got some media news and it’s been confirmed as much as I can confirm it,” Watson told SEN Breakfast.

“Ross Lyon, I think he’s going to be a star in the media. He’s going to be doing some work at Triple M and he’s also going to be doing some work on Channel 9.

“I’m hearing they’ve muscled up Footy Classified on a Monday night and I think they’re going to go on a Wednesday night.

“Eddie McGuire may be the host of the Wednesday night Footy Classified and Ross Lyon will be sitting alongside him.

“I think Matthew Lloyd might be doing the Monday and the Wednesday, but I’m not too sure about that.”
