Greater Western Sydney GIANTS General Manager of Football Graeme Allan and Head Coach Leon Cameron have received their AFL Life Memberships at the 2015 AFL Season Launch in Melbourne.

Allan and Cameron were nominated last month for Life Membership of the AFL for their services to Australian Football.
 
Cameron qualified during the 2014 season by reaching 300 games as a player and coach while Allan was nominated under the provision of 'Special Service to the Game'.
 
Graeme ‘Gubby’ Allan played 141 games for Fitzroy and Collingwood between 1975-86, before moving into football administration. Since his retirement as a player, he has worked as Football Manager at Collingwood, the Brisbane Lions and the GIANTS and been involved in four premierships.
 
Allan was appointed as Football Manager of 'Team GWS' in February 2010 and has been instrumental in building the GIANTS' playing list.
 
Leon Cameron played 256 premiership games for Western Bulldogs and Richmond and has coached 22 premiership games with the GIANTS. He also played 26 pre-season games with Western Bulldogs and Richmond, has coached five pre-season games at the GIANTS and played one state game. Cameron also won the Western Bulldogs Best and Fairest award in 1993.
 
GIANTS Chief Executive David Matthews congratulated the pair on their awards.
 
“This is well deserved recognition for the outstanding contribution both men have made to the game and I congratulate them on receiving this honour,” said Matthews.
 
“Graeme Allan and Leon Cameron are two of the most respected figures in the AFL and to have them playing such key roles at our football club is fantastic for the GIANTS as we grow the game in Western Sydney and the ACT."
 
Allan and Cameron were part of a group of 13 people nominated in March who received their awards on Wednesday night.
 
The other umpires, players, coaches and administrators who became Life Members of the AFL are Jimmy Bartel, Kane Cornes, Dean Cox, Nick Dal Santo, Corey Enright, Nick Riewoldt, Brenton Sanderson, Justin Schmitt, Brad Scott, Greg Miller and Andrew Demetriou.
