So 4 boxing on mischief, no 3rd party software in use. Currently have sk, shm, bard and rogue. Bard is pretty much just an afk melody bot. The positioning requirement of the rogue is driving me nuts. What would y’all recommend I swap it out with? I’m thinking mage for simple macro do’s and pet toys for sk and shm. Maybe wiz for easy do’s and ports?
 
Honestly, It seems you have the perfect grouping already for the number of toons. For sure, you can dump the rog for a mage and keep your DPS, and gain some utility at the same time with Toys and CoTH type stuff. Not sure what you mean by positioning though... If by "no 3rd party software" you mean no MQ and RG, not sure what to say.

When I think boxing with no MQ2, I think single macro keys I can spam either between alt tabs (truly in effective) or across multiple PCs/keyboards... that said, I believe that a pet macro + spell casts (on the same Keybinds) is probably going to be your best bet... that way you don't have to worry bout moving the pet classes' pets AND you only have to press ONE keybind to send pet and attack with pet and run through a spell line up...
 
id swap the rog for a mnk or berserker, similar dps and easier positioning... probably berserker for the snare /disc
I would NOT get rid of the bard, group invis and group movement make boxing considerably easier. Only time I dont have a bard is if I am boxing 1-2 and even then I prefer a bard

Not sure how you are setting up the fights, I have tried parking toons not on follow and facing a certain direction and pulling to them but I find it considerably better to just have everyone always on /follow and only breaking follow on casters during boss fights
Just need a single key for /assist main to start the fight then you cast spells as needed
I've not had a rogue in 20yrs so just assuming your issue is

If the autofollow is not good for you than I would roll a SHM + mages instead... maybe a wiz in there... have the SHM do all the pulling and temporary tanking before pets take over, slow + root for CC from the SHM
