I'd argue with Ison coming in we have more than is needed. JMO

Worth watching by way of reminder:
If we have
1. identified kicking as our main weakness
And
2. this guy is behaving himself
We are absolutely kidding ourselves letting him go.
Short of EH stabbing the CEO in the car park - even then I'd ask which CEO was it.

Correct. Not to mention all the time and resources the club is having to use up on this. Resources that could better be spent elsewhere.

The problem is our culture and the fact we have failed to reign it in for so long.
You don’t trade for a player with such issues, if you deeply know you don’t have the processes in place to assist them.
Now we have lost a pick and probably hand a player away for zero return.

E Hollands really really pizzed me orf because I watched hsi highlight reel from 24 and thought wow- somethign good happens every time this bloike has ball in hand....was so looking forward to seeing him in '25.. THEN the 'mental issues' replaced by 'personal issues' and then a PILE of rumours about how he behaved towards other players rumour rumour rumour...on top of the whole TDK curnow shenaningams on top of Harry's issues...on top of Smith doing an ACL...
meh!
oh well at least in 2026 there will only be teh Walsh rumours to hang around like bad breath after an all nighter
We've improved our non-KPF personnel in the forward half after the trade period. Hollands' worth has been overstated because of how diabolically sheizenhousen we are with forward entries. He's not some generational talent. He just stands out because he's been surrounded by subpar footballers. If he's let go then it wouldn't surprise me if he remains on the scrapheap and not picked up by another club.
It's a fair point. Highlights mean little
Kid has serious talent but how often has he produced it? 24 next season and yet to step up at AFL level on any consistent basis and I reckon now we have a lot of coverage in the role he plays
Yeah for however talented he is, we need to think about building chemistry.
Elijah or any other player in and out of the 22 could distract or even destabilise the playing group both on and off the field.
