Jack Darling is officially a Roo after North Melbourne and West Coast agreed to a trade on Monday.

The Roos receive Darling in exchange for the club's 2024 fourth-round draft selection (currently 67, tied to Essendon).

Darling played 298 games and kicked 532 goals in a celebrated career with the Eagles after being drafted with pick No.26 in 2010.

He has accumulated a number of honours for West Coast, leading the club's goalkicking four times, including the Eagles' premiership year in 2018.

He earned All-Australian honours in 2019 following his most productive season when he kicked a career-best 59 goals.

North Melbourne general manager of football Todd Viney said the club was excited to welcome the 32-year-old to Arden Street.

"We were looking to add some support to our forward line, and we’re excited about what a player like Jack can bring," Viney said.

"Our head of football talent Brady Rawlings worked with Jack in his previous role at West Coast and has seen up close his professionalism and preparation.

"Jack has great strength and ability to bring the ball to ground and chase and tackle, and we think his experience will benefit our young list enormously.

"We know he’ll be a great sounding board and support for players like Nick Larkey and Cam Zurhaar, and he’s excited about helping us in our journey back up the ladder."

North Melbourne currently holds picks No.2, 25, 43 and 61 in the 2024 Telstra AFL Draft.
