Lyon nominated Carlton captain Chris Judd as a major threat but said the Blues generally were premiership material.

"They're playing with endeavour, hardness and system and they're a young, hungry group," he said.

"They'll see us as an opportunity to continue to further grow that momentum."

"They're a top-four team, they're virtually grand-final talent ... and they're where we want to be."

I think we need to win three in a row before we a considered "premiership" material.

Old Ross is getting desperate there. Funny reading.

Time to show Ross that for once in his life, he is "right"! Finish them Baggers.

I'll second that motion.

Three? We need to be good enough to get a 'streak', or we'll never be contenders!

Honestly what on earth would Ross Lyon know about premierships anyway

James Hird and Essendon* FC - #FOREVERDRUGCHEATS

A lot of positive talk about us this week yet many in the media picking the Saints purely on hope IMO....we are hated with a passion and I love it....will have no negative affect on our performance this week....we will pummel the Saints....

The old 'talk up the opposition right before the game' ploy.
Saints lose and it's an honourable loss against a genuine contender, Saints win and it's hailed as a win against the odds.
