ANDREW Demetriou could make way for Gillon McLachlan before the end of the season if the deputy CEO wins the race for footy's top job.

McLachlan remains a hot favourite to replace Demetriou, who announced his exit from the game on the eve of this season.

The AFL Commission received an update on the search for a new CEO at yesterday's meeting and an announcement is expected within a fortnight.

Demetriou had said he would stay on until the end of the year, but it is understood he is open to an early exit in the event of a handover to McLachlan.

If it is not an internal appointment, Demetriou would almost certainly stay until the end of the season.

Ultimately the timing of Demetriou's departure would be a commission decision.

Recruitment firm Egon Zehnder is continuing the interview process, but that is expected to finish as soon as this week.

Club chiefs including Brendon Gale (Richmond) and Brian Cook (Geelong) have been sounded out about the AFL CEO job, and outgoing Coles chief Ian McLeod continues to be mentioned in connection with the role.

Gale was asked about his head office ambitions yesterday.

"I wake up every day trying to make our club better," Gale said. "Today is no different and that's where my focus is."

The commission was brought up to date on the latest version of the league's new equalisation policies yesterday — which will likely be finalised when the league and club bosses meet early in June.

Football operations boss Mark Evans presented to the commission yesterday about the laws of the game, but said more data needed to be gathered before presenting the board with any recommendations about potential rule changes.
