Creative mid-forward Hugo Mikunda is a Kangaroo after North Melbourne selected the Geelong Falcons prospect with pick No.48 in the 2025 Telstra AFL Draft. A 181cm half-forward, Mikunda impressed with his incisive foot skills for the Falcons and Vic Country in his draft season.

North Melbourne has taken key defender Blake Thredgold with pick No.26 in the 2025 Telstra AFL Draft. The Kangaroos held the first pick of the second round and selected the athletic 194cm South Australian to boost their key position stocks. Thredgold was adjudged best on ground in the SANFL Under-18 Grand Final, taking 12 marks along with 14 disposals, playing a vital role as Sturt went on to beat West Adelaide in the decider.

North Melbourne has selected 178cm small forward Lachy Dovaston from the Eastern Ranges with pick No.16 in the 2025 Telstra AFL Draft.

Dovaston was named in the Coates Talent League Team of the Year after his consistent season for the Eastern Ranges. He averaged 16 disposals and kicked 38 goals across his 16 games.
