THREE-time All-Australian Jack Macrae wants to join St Kilda in the upcoming Continental Tyres AFL Trade Period.
As reported by AFL.com.au's Cal Twomey last week, McRae has joined star midfielder Bailey Smith in requesting a trade away from the Western Bulldogs.
Twomey reported on Tuesday that Macrae, who is contracted for another three years, wants to be traded to the Saints.
St Kilda currently holds picks 7, 24 and 43 in this year's draft.
Macrae played 19 senior games this year, including four as a sub, and spent parts of the season at VFL level.
Excluding the COVID-impacted 2020 season, this year was just the third campaign in which Macrae has played fewer than 20 games.
He hurt his hamstring on the eve of the 2024 season and first featured in the senior side in round three.
The Bulldogs added to their midfield during the campaign with Ed Richards' move, while Ryley Sanders – the No.6 pick in last year's draft – played 14 games this year.
Macrae won three consecutive All-Australian blazers in 2019-2021 and was part of the club's 2016 premiership win.
