===Shinboner of the Century===
On 18 March 2005, the North Melbourne football club held a special gala dinner entitled the "North Story" to celebrate the 80th anniversary of North's admission to the VFL, and the 30th anniversary of the club's first VFL premiership. Over 3500 people attended the historic event held at the [[Royal Exhibition Building]], including almost all surviving North Melbourne players. [[Glenn Archer]] was voted the '''Shinboner of the Century''' by his peers as the player who most represents the 'Shinboner Spirit'. The following players were voted 'Shinboners' of their era:

* [[Les Foote]] – Shinboner of the early era (1925–1950)
* [[Allen Aylett]] – Shinboner of the '50s
* [[Noel Teasdale]] – Shinboner of the '60s
* [[Malcolm Blight]] – Shinboner of the '70s
* [[Wayne Schimmelbusch]] – Shinboner of the '80s
* [[Wayne Carey]] – Shinboner of the modern era (1990–2005)

===150th-year celebration===

To commemorate the 150th year of the founding of the North Melbourne Football Club, a 150th Year Celebration was organised for the first weekend of August 2019, which commenced with a Friday Night blockbuster against archrivals Hawthorn. Starting from 27 points down in the first quarter, the Kangaroos fought back against the Hawks to triumph as 22-point winners to get the weekend celebrations underway. The following day, the Kangaroos' VFL side took on [[Box Hill Hawks Football Club|Box Hill]] and won in a similar comeback performance, coming from 31 points down at three-quarter time to win by 2 points. To cap off the weekend, a 150th-Year Celebration Dinner was held at the [[Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre]], where the 150 greatest-ever North Melbourne players were announced, with the top-10 greatest North Melbourne players announced on the night from the results of an expert panel.
