THE AFL will appoint its new general manager of football operations before the start of the home-and-away season after short-listing six candidates.
Chief executive Andrew Demetriou said interviews for the role would begin soon.
For the first time, he also revealed how the role would be different to the one Adrian Anderson held for nine years.
Demetriou said he had been extremely pleased with the quality of the applicants after the AFL advertised for a replacement for Anderson, who resigned from the position last December.
"We received an incredible number of applicants, both external of the industry and from within the industry," Demetriou told Herald Sun columnist Shane Crawford in an exclusive interview.
He said there would be changes to the position, making it a much more football-focused role, with all levels of the talent program returned within its jurisdiction.
But Demetriou confirmed the all-important integrity department would be separated from the football operations role.
"The integrity unit, which includes all of the compliance areas, the salary cap, all of the betting stuff, the surveillance and the investigations, will be moved out into a stand-alone unit, which will operate under the legal part of our business," Demetriou said.
Brett Clothier, now competition regular manager, will head the AFL integrity unit.
Simon Lethlean, general manager of broadcasting, scheduling and legal affairs, is believed to be one of the six in the mix for the football operations role.
