Career[]

Tracey is a local Cronulla-Sutherland junior from the De La Salle Caringbah club. Tracey then signed with South Sydney in 2015 and initially played in the club's Under 20's team. In 2018, Tracey played for South Sydney's feeder club side North Sydney in the Intrust Super Premiership NSW. At the end of the year, Tracey was named as North Sydney's best back. Tracey started the 2019 season for Souths in the Canterbury Cup NSW.[2][3]

Tracey made his first grade debut in round 12 of the 2019 NRL season for South Sydney in their 26-14 loss to the Parramatta Eels.[4]

On 4 August 2019, it was revealed that Tracey would be departing Souths at the end of the 2019 NRL season after signing with Cronulla-Sutherland for the 2020 season.[5]

On 29 September 2019, Tracey was named in the 2019 Canterbury Cup NSW team of the season.[6]

In round 1 of the 2020 NRL season, he made his debut for Cronulla-Sutherland against South Sydney. In the final minutes of the game, Tracey set up what would have been the match winning try but his pass was deemed to have gone forward. In round 12, he scored his first try in the top grade as Cronulla defeated Brisbane 36-26 at Suncorp Stadium.[7]

In round 4 of the 2021 NRL season, he scored two tries for Cronulla in a 48-10 victory over North Queensland at Kogarah Oval.[8] Following a number of injuries to Cronulla’s usual lineup, Tracey was utilised at both the centre and wing positions,[9] equaling his four-try total from the previous season in his first eight appearances of 2021.[10]

In round 16 of the 2021 NRL season, Tracey scored two tries in a shock 26-18 defeat against Brisbane.[11]
