THREE-TIME Geelong premiership player Joel Corey, Cats coach Chris Scott, St Kilda star Lenny Hayes, Sydney Swans coach John Longmire and midfielder Ryan O'Keefe and six-time Grand Final umpire Brett Rosebury will be made life members of the AFL when the League holds its annual general meeting in Adelaide next month.
All of them qualified automatically for life membership during the 2013 season by reaching 300 games as a player, umpire or player and coach.
AFL medical commissioner and former North Melbourne medico Dr Harry Unglik, former Western Bulldogs club president David Smorgon and St Kilda premiership player and long-time administrator Brian Sierakowski will also be made life members.
They have qualified under the 'Special Service to the Game' provision.
AFL chief executive officer Andrew Demetriou said the game looked forward to thanking each of them personally for their contribution to football, both on-field as players, umpires and coaches and off-field as administrators and officials.
The Jack Titus award for conspicuous service to the game will be presented to Adelaide's Barrie Downs, who has been involved continuously at club level in South Australia since 1952.
Downs worked at SANFL clubs South Adelaide and West Adelaide and has served Adelaide since the Crows' inception in November 1990.
The AFL's annual general meeting will take place on Tuesday, March 4.
