Nasheed here,
I’ve been very critical of Holland in the past, but this thread is a reminder that he actually was brilliant in hindsight.
He had that X factor and ability to do a little sumpin from nuttin.
He was a sensational fullback, centre and winger and filled in at hooker very well. Supremely versatile.
He made breaks like it was a cats breakfast and had some good combos before the club ruined him.
How many times was it said he could’ve played for Oz?
He also never came from the junior ranks and made it on his own by just playing one day for a pub team. His talent bright him to the nrl.
He was so good. Just that amazing footy brain and I think the girls really liked him as he had amazing blue eyes and reminded me of freak Sinatra.
