The AFL will award nine life memberships including one to St Kilda's Norm Smith Medallist Lenny Hayes at its annual general meeting in March.

Hayes, Geelong coach Chris Scott, ex-Cats midfielder Joel Corey, Sydney coach John Longmire and dual premiership-winning Swans star Ryan O'Keefe as well as six-time Grand Final umpire Brett Rosebury all qualify by reaching the milestone of 300 games as a player, umpire or player and coach.

AFL Medical Commissioner and former North Melbourne club doctor Harry Unglik will receive life membership under the provision of special services to the game.

Ex-Western Bulldogs club president David Smorgon and St Kilda premiership player and long-time administrator Brian Sierakowski will also receive life memberships.

Good. I didn't always agree with everything he said or did, but he was a strong voice for our club and his commitment could never be questioned.

David was great for our club and his people came in with some fresh ideas at time when we were in big trouble financially.
