The AFL presenting a final model to the governing body last week follow a review throughout last season.
All 18 clubs will be briefed on the changes during meetings on the Gold Coast today.
The new match review system scraps the old process of grading an offence in favour of a simpler categorisation method.
Conduct will now be graded as either intentional or careless and penalties will be fines or, where suspension is warranted, a two or three-game ban with more serious behaviour referred directly to the Tribunal.
Carry-over points have been eliminated.
Only suspended players will be ineligible for the Brownlow Medal, meaning low-grade offenders will remain in the hunt for the AFL's most prestigious honour.
Players remain able to downgrade their prescribed penalty with an early guilty plea, however good record provisions have been removed, while bad record provisions will be altered to allow for a maximum one-week added suspension where a player had been banned for two matches in the previous two calendar years.
While fines will allow players to remain 'in the game' for minor offences in 2015 and beyond, suspensions will be applicable for repeat offenders following a third offence.
The AFL's general manager of football operations Mark Evans believes the changes will be good for the game and the football community's understanding of the competition's penalty system.
“It was ... extremely confusing for fans to understand how a verdict was reached under the points system, so the primary changes have been based around a simplified record and plea process, with an easier to understand table of offences and categories,” Evans said in a statement on Wednesday.
“The AFL has been examining the MRP process for more than 12 months, and our focus has been to retain the excellent parts of the system while simplifying its operation and ensuring that appropriate penalties are in place for offences.
“It is a strength of the MRP system that players are able to accept a discount for pleading guilty to an offence, but we did not want to continue to see players missing matches for low-level offences, due to carry-over points and poor records."
