NORTH MELBOURNE veteran Shannon Grant has confirmed he will retire at the end of this season.
Grant, who will play his 300th game against Port Adelaide at the MCG on Saturday, said he will hang up the boots when the Roos are knocked out of the finals.
The 31-year-old was originally drafted by Sydney but was traded to North at the end of the 1997 season in a straight swap for Wayne Schwass.
Grant has played 241 games for North Melbourne and won the Norm Smith medal after booting four goals in the Roos' 35-point win over Carlton in the 1999 grand final.
