Across 11 appearances as a replacement, McAlpine contributes efficiently within limited minutes, averaging under a carry and under a tackle per outing yet peaking at 4 tackles and 18 metres carried in a single game. That ceiling suggests he can lift his output meaningfully when called upon, even if his typical involvement remains modest. His role is defined by short, purposeful bursts rather than sustained ball-carrying volume.
