Did well to come back after an ordinary 1st half, even when we were sinking in Q3.He gets better each week.

I'm extremely bullish about Holmes, have been for a long time (relative to his career length thus far), but I won't carry on too much here, don't want to jinx it!
Apt number though I feel, reminds me of Kelly.

was just gonna post this...
Thats impressive when the whips were cracking - to lead the stats like that. Shows the rumours of him being a gun in the making are gaining strength.

I think his strength is how clean he is with his ground ball gets

How about a universal love thread?

I can't find another thread on this guy, so I'm starting one. Just saying I love what he brings to the table. Fantastic vision. Lost count of the times his quick 'gives' have opened up the play and resulted in goals. Should nick name him 'the can opener' Pressure and closing speed are also top...

Superb in the last 1/4. The kid has the talent. Will be a ripper in another season or two.
His 4th quarter was immense. Surely will have won even his harshest critics over. Really hope he can develop into an elite footballer.

I wouldn't say it was all one way in the first 3 quarters for him. There was a passage of pressure work where it was contested in the back pocket and he just made repeated efforts to force it out way and broke out the pack to find I think Selwood by foot. Created a goal early that kept us in it.
But yeah I know what you mean. He was inconsistent. I think he'll find that consistency once he hits 50 games

Hard for you to give him credit you think he is a spud
I don't think he will be a spud. I just dont think he will be 'the next Dangerfield but with better kicking'.

Holmes was second BOG according to the official player ratings which factors in āintercepts, spoils, kicking to a contest, smothers, chasing, corralling and many other 'one-percenters'ā as well as possessions, goals etc.
Clearly the system is not perfect - nobody thinks Pendlebury was BOG or that Cameron wasnāt in the 10 best players on the ground!!! - but shows Holmes did a lot right in a big game.
