Macrae is expected to play through the middle of the ground at a decent rate next season, this should include centre bounce usage.

His fantasy scoring output should be quite healthy in 2025, his ability to find the ball at a strong rate over his career as a pure mid is certainly noteworthy heading into a new season.
