Macdonald delivered 75 in a 39-point away loss to Melbourne — playing an 80/20 mid-forward role with Nash out, rated 8.6/10 with 21 disposals and 7 score involvements. A 75 as the best player in a losing side at the MCG is a quality performance in a tough context. Cash gen ticking at $1,844/wk and the role is expanding with Nash absent. Hold firmly — if Nash stays out, captain him freely.
