Contents

McKenzie was drafted with pick 22 of the 2014 National Draft from the Oakleigh Chargers. [1] He made his debut against Essendon in round 5 of the 2015 season. [2] In mid 2019, McKenzie signed a contract extension that will keep him with St Kilda until the end of the 2022 season.

McKenzie was delisted by St Kilda after the 2023 season after persistent calf injuries, with the door remaining open for him to be re-drafted if he could fix these recurring injuries over the summer. [3]

He played junior football for Blackburn in the Eastern Football Netball League and school football for Caulfield Grammar School.
