North Melbourne forward Paul Curtis has recommitted to the club for a further two years, penning a deal that will tie him to Arden Street until the end of 2025.
The 19-year-old made his debut for North in Round 6 and has gone on to play ten consecutive games, kicking six goals thus far.
Selected with pick 35 in the 2021 AFL draft, Curtis is an exciting young forward who showed plenty of promise at junior and VFL level before earning a senior call up.
Curtis told club media that he was looking forward to the future at North Melbourne.
โIโm absolutely stoked to sign on. Itโs such a young group and to have the experience playing [10] games, Iโm just stoked to be here and ride the journey,โ Curtis said.

North Melbourne's head of football performance Dan McPherson said the club was looking forward to seeing Curtis continue to develop at Arden Street.
โWeโve been really pleased with how Paul has come along this season and to have him sign on until the end of 2025ย is a great boost for the club,โ McPherson said.
โHeโs acquitted himself really well at AFL level this year and a lot of that comes down to the hard work heโs been putting in on the training track. Heโs a mature young manย with great character,ย and the growth heโs displayed so far is going to hold him in good stead for his career at North Melbourne.โ
