North coach Brad Scott has been named among a 12-person panel on the newly formed Competition Committee.

Scott joins fellow coach, Brisbane’s Chris Fagan on the committee, as well as three presidents, three CEO’s, two football managers and two current AFL-listed players.

The Competition Committee was formed to replace the laws of the game committee, the player movement advisory panel and the AFL's other advisory boards and committees.

Its main responsibilities will be the game itself, player movement and the structure of the competition.

The working model will see projects presented to the Competition Committee, which if endorsed, will be sent to the Commission, which still holds power to make decisions.

AFL football operations manager Steve Hocking will chair the group while the League will be represented by commissioner Jason Ball, commercial operations manager Kylie Rogers and AFLW head of football Nicole Livingstone.

Head of competitions and player movement Josh Vanderloo and game analysis manager Patrick Clifton will take part in meetings when necessary.

Hocking said individuals would serve a maximum of three years on the panel.

"The AFL sought to balance representation across all parts of the competition, as well as the many different senior roles within our game – players, coaches, administrators, senior volunteer officials," Hocking said.

"Representatives will stay on the committee for a maximum of three years and we envisage all clubs getting the opportunity to be represented at some point in the future, to complement the views of players, umpires and coaches.

"There are many people across the industry who can make a strong contribution and this initial group, coupled with those who will then join the committee in time, is to primarily focus on how we advance our game whilst protecting its heritage."
