We let him down tonight. As always, he didn't let us down.
He and Libba are the only midfielders who look like they are going to make things happen. Macrae is very consistent and rarely beaten.
Smith too, maybe, but in a different sense.
Massive heart.
Our most bankable player week in week out, which is a precious and rare commodity in our playing group.
An excellent performance by Macrae in a standout performance with 37 possessions.
Is there a more consistent player in the AFL at the moment? A shining light in a dismal performance.
He gives his all, ALL the time. Great player.
In Macrae's last 100 games, he has only missed getting 20+ possessions twice. Once v Port when he got injured and only played a half, and the other earlier this year v Saints he was kept to 18.
Extraordinary consistency.
A few other current streaks for Jacko;
10+ handballs in a game - 45 consecutive
3 x i50's - 13 consecutive. Unfortunately the run of 3+ inside 50s have only resulted in a total of 4 goal assists, which is an area for improvement.
Over his career Jacko averages just under 28 possessions per game (slightly higher in finals), and gets 30+ 43.23% of the time, which is behind only Tom Mitchell and Matt Crouch for current players.
Finally getting some consistency in his game.....
Loved his kick inboard to set up the switch across to Roarke and hit to JJ running into the forward fifty. At that stage in the game others would have kicked it high around the corner and down the line.......but Jacko as usual kept his cool.
Before round 9 only one other player had 30 possessions in the first 8 games of a season besides Jacko. David Thorpe. Not sure how Thorpe went in his 9th game.
He's had an incredible season. I'd say he is still improving
