North Melbourne has re-signed veteran defender Michael Firrito on a one-year deal.
The 30-year-old told AFL.com.au that he was pleased to be part of what could be exciting times for this year's preliminary finalist.
"It's a very exciting time at the footy club so to be a part of it is pretty nice," Firrito said on Wednesday.
"I'm getting older too, so I certainly cherish the times playing finals.
"It's a funny game, footy. I'm just excited to kick on for another 12 months, but who knows what lies ahead?
"I will certainly put my head down and bum up and work pretty hard because it feels like – and this is just my opinion – that we are on the cusp of something pretty exciting and I certainly want to be part of it."
