Toast Welcome to the SUNS Elijah Hollands

[MarcLocksCrustySock]

189cm gun

 

[The Victorian]

Very excited about this one! He is committed and excited about joining the club and that gets him half way there! All the best Elijah!

 

[Sunny_]

Let's go Eli!

Looks stoked. Hope he has a long and healthy career with us.

 

[Iva Bigun]

C’mon down Dutchie

 

[Stroppy]

Big tick from me.

Comes from my neck of the woods (North East Victoria).
Looks to have a versatile game which will help him get in the team.
Is 189 cm but still young and might get a little taller.

 

[Jirik13]

Great talent, great character. The only negative - supposedly 40% chance he will do another ACL.

He will be on SEN right now.

Imagine how good Elijah Holland’s will be after 93 games.

Lemmens has done extremely well to get to 100 games, with all due respect. (thinking he will get to 100 this year).

 

[Mt Isa Mustang]

Lemmens has done extremely well to get to 100 games, with all due respect. (thinking he will get to 100 this year).

He’s actually done some good things recently.
The first 70 games were very unimpressive.

I can see Holland’s exploding at that stage of his career.

Did Lemmens do an ACL as a junior?

 

[Governor]

When will Suns' top draft pick Elijah Hollands be ready to play?

Hollands says his rehabilitation from a torn ACL in February is going well.

www.sen.com.au

 

[Gorringe Can Suck One]

supposedly 40% chance he will do another ACL.

He will be on SEN right now.

Thought hes on track to make a full recovery?

 

[Jirik13]

Thought hes on track to make a full recovery?

For sure but if you do ACL before 18 years old the chance you do another one in future goes up significantly according to experts.

 

[kreglze]

Compare him to someone like Petracca who also did an ACL as a kid. Took a few years to hit his peak, played mostly forward, but he was absolutely flying this season.

 

[Mini GF]

He did his ACL back in February. Play him from the beginning.

 

[Jirik13]

Suns recruit Hollands big on relationships

No expert thought Elijah Hollands would slip as low pick seven in the AFL draft. But behind the scenes, Gold Coast were optimistic.

Love this kids, speaks well and has a maturity beyond his years, excited to see him play

 

[Supersuns]

Why risk it? High chance he can do it again so let him recover and do it slowly. St Kilda did that with Max King

He can do it again in training or scratch match like Docharthy or Thompson . ACL is all depend on your luck. Not playing him only delay the time of his luck .

No stats saying that the longer you don't play AFL , you won't do it again in training or reserve matches .

You way of saying let him recovers mean Carlton and GCS purposely put the Docharthy and Thompson ahead of their schedule and rushing their recovery .

 

[Crow till I die]

I am actually really looking forward to watching your midfield this year..it is going to be rolled gold

If and it’s a big IF, Holland’s, Anderson and Rowell all play in the mids in the second half of the year and Luko moves forward as expected then King, Luko and Rankine are going to have a field day

For me id play lukosius between the arcs for the forseeable future as he is just about the best kick going and will spot up targets all day once heis fed the ball by any of those 3 mids
