The Jack Macrae Thread

[Dogsman16]

Absolute joke he has never one a B&F. Thirty disposals is regarded as an average game for him. Hope he wins it this season surely with Bailey missing 4 games and Libba had a slow start he wins it this year.

Bailey is going to miss 6. English will have missed 7 including this round.

Macraes only real challenger is Naughton at this stage. Maybe Dunkley also.

Why is it a joke? He was just unlucky to arrive about the time Bont did.

His problem may be that he is unspectacular. Seldom does anything that the networks will put in their highlights reel. This despite the fact that the degree of difficulty of what he does is quite high , especially those low passes kicked across his body.

That metronome-like consistency may work against him because he doesn’t catch the eye as much as a rampant Bont, a high flying Naughton or a dashing mulleted Baz.

Or Libba?

Or Libba?

Think Libba is slightly behind. He’s a chance though. I have Libba 4-6 range in the bnf at the moment.

Second 3 times third twice. I thought he would have won it for sure in 2018 when Lachie Hunter won it.

There can't have been too many "as consistently good" first 200 games over the journey. At 30+ disposals in 100 of his 199 thus far, even a paltry 29 next week sees him at 50%.

Blokes a machine (a well oiled one).

 

[Footscrazy]

Such a tough nut too, always gets clobbered yet hasn't missed a game since 2018. He's up to 88 consecutive games played.

Tom Mitchell is Jack Macrae from wish.

 

[Kennel Master]

Just love the way he plays. He's tough, skilled, relentless and brave.

He just finds space and has great vision. He deserves a B&F.

He's a proud Bulldog and we are lucky to have him in our team for many more years.

Congrats on 200 games Jack Macrae. Ever reliable and goes about it with minimal fuss. A winner in every aspect.

 

[Some Idiot]

I think he was better last year than this year but his consistency speaks for itself.

 

[DognBones]

We all love The Bont but Macrae and Libba are the heart and soul players in our team. What is most admirable about Macrae is the never-say-die high standards he sets for himself. He is a champion.

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

Honoured to be going to this game with it being Jacko’s 200th. I picked Macrae as my favourite player when I first started watching the Dogs. I must have known what I was on about. What a player and what a top lad.

Favourite moment lately was when BT approached.
