Across 53 matches Macleod averages over 13 tackles per game, marking him out as one of the primary defensive workhorses at the breakdown. He complements that graft with reliable ball-carrying, chipping in 12 tries over the sample — a return that speaks to a flanker who stays dangerous close to the gainline. His peak outputs of 28 tackles and 11 carries in a single match confirm he can step up his involvement significantly when the game demands it.
