Across five appearances as a replacement, McAlpine has shown a purposeful running game, averaging over three metres per carry and posting a best of 11 metres from two carries in a single outing. His involvement in the tight phases is selective rather than frequent, suggesting he is used in specific carrying situations rather than as a volume ball-runner. His defensive contribution is modest, with tackles coming at under one per match, pointing to an impact role centred primarily on his work with ball in hand.
