Across 26 appearances as a replacement, McIntyre's output is defined almost entirely by his defensive work, averaging five tackles per match and accumulating 131 in total across roughly 800 minutes. His carrying numbers are modest by design — two carries and 1.5 metres per outing — pointing to a role focused on securing the gainline defensively rather than generating ball-in-hand impact. When called upon, his peak of 17 tackles in a single match underlines the intensity he can bring in short, high-pressure stints.
