Playing career
Club
MacAuley plays his club football with Ballyboden St Enda's, with whom he won the Dublin Senior Football Championship in 2009.
Inter-county
MacAuley made his senior football debut for Dublin against Wexford in the first round of the O'Byrne Cup; he scored a point on his debut.[4] McAuley made his debut in the league against the 2009 All-Ireland Champions Kerry. He scored a decisive point in the game which assured the win for Dublin against Kerry.[5]
MacAuley made his Championship debut as a substitute against Wexford in the 2010 Leinster Senior Football Championship.[6] He made his second appearance against Meath in the semi final of the Leinster football championship, a game in which Dublin were easily beaten by the Royals.[7] MacAuley had his first start for Dublin against Tipperary in a second round qualifier for the All-Ireland Championship. He scored his first Championship goal and point in a game in which he finished with 1-01 of the final score of 1-21 to 1-13 at Croke Park.[8] MacAuley scored a point in Dublin's eventual exit from that season's All-Ireland Championship at the semi-final stage.[9]
MacAuley won his first All-Ireland Senior Football Championship in September 2011, when Dublin baet Kerry at Croke Park.[10] He wasn't surprised by the comeback nature of the game, saying: "We had been down before in matches. It wasn't the first time we were down. We actually had a training game the week before when the As played the Bs and it was a very similar situation".[11] His second All-Ireland title came against Mayo in 2013, as did the All Stars Footballer of the Year, when he succeeded Karl Lacey to the title.[2][3]
