Aiden Bonar has a new home at Arden St, after North Melbourne concluded a deal with GWS for the talented midfielder.

The Roos receive Bonar and future fourth-round pick, in exchange for a future third-round selection.

The former pick 11 has only managed six games with the Giants in his two seasons of senior football, and is looking for more opportunities.

"We're delighted to snare a player of Aiden's talent," North coach Rhyce Shaw said. 

"At 188cm, he can play as a mid, or go forward with great impact.

"Aiden is a dynamic and super athletic player and he offers us a lot of flexibility."

Explosive and powerfully built, Bonar’s athleticism is one of his standout traits, as he ranked second in the 20m sprint at the 2017 Draft Combine, and first in the vertical standing jump. 

Due to a log-jam of midfielders at GWS, Bonar was unable to break into the senior side in 2019 but Shaw believes he will add to his games tally at North.

"There'll definitely be opportunities for Aiden to play, and we are really excited to see what he can bring to the table," Shaw added.

"You cannot pass up on bringing in someone of his skill level and talent, and we will be a better team with him on the list."
