Spring Security 3 - Multiple Secuirty Filters after First postion

I am using spring 3 and implementing a series of custom filters in the security chain. I need to call a series of already implemented filters after the FIRST position. If I try to list two filters in the same position (after="FIRST") the context fails to load with the error stating that position is already in use and there is a conflict.

How do I implement a series of custom filters to be called after the "FIRST" position?

(I prefer not to refactor the filters because they are pretty detailed)

If the conflict is between these two filters then you can define a composite filter:

 <bean id="customFilters" class="org.springframework.web.filter.CompositeFilter">
<property name="filters">
    <list>
        <ref bean="customfilter1"/>
        <ref bean="customfilter2"/>
    </list>
</property>

Add it to your filter chain like this:

 <security:http ...>
 <security:custom-filter after="FIRST" ref="customFilters" />
 ....
  </security:http>
