Not sure about where to play him definitely not in the centres his reaction is too slow. Fullback his slow and too relaxed. Funny I was t thinking in the halves with Lewis.
I was thinking that a few weeks ago too but screw that, Hoppa does what Hoppa wants, he doesn't talk or organise.

Which is why I'm thinking bench... He can play anywhere, forwards, backs or even halves if needed and swing a game if needed. His sort of a shit X factor...

Damn I wish he was a backrower.

Bra your talking about one of the best defensive centres to play the game...… Holland defends 3 wks a season!!
I meant in attack

J Moz also got beaten all ends to concede our only try

Plus J Leilua owned him to win Raiders the game

J Moz not the best defensive centre of all time

Holland has a good work ethic and always puts in. Sure he has some defensive lapses and needs to fix that if he wants to cement a spot when positions are being fought for in the coming years.

Against Tigers on a dewy surface there wasn't alot of attack out wide. Teams are reluctant to do so on a slippery surface. Bronco's like to spread the ball but thankfully we play them on Thursday night and on a dewy surface at ANZ which gives us a good chance.

I've always had a high opinion of the bloke as a footballer and while I doubt he's never going to be a representative player, he's becoming a solid 1st grader. He's 25 / 26, played 38 NRL games, so with a good off-season he'll be aiming for a big 2019. He came through juniors as a half and fullback so has some skills too. Pretty handy back up goal kicker too

I was impressed with dutchy, as a former centre you can tell he knows what to do .
He knows the lines to run and its the hardest position to defend.
Pretty sure jmoz let bj leuia in against raiders late and eerily similar against masters last night ,same poor defence.
Not jmoz bashing, huge fan , but dutchy looks tight on that side with remis and jacko.
Happy for the boys to get a good win!
Also made my weekend

Haha....the kennel is a weird alternate universe. Three games ago everybody wanted to hang him by his balls for defensive errors.

He will take Josh Morris position next year and on a lot less coin.

He mentioned he has played more fullback and halfback.

Didn't know that even when I was calling for him to take over Mbye.

I’d love to see him have a crack at fullback

Who knows
He might be shit

He might be the next billy slater

But one thing I do know
This season and no doubt next season are gap years

So perfect time to try things

Holland seems to have answered all of the critics on the forum. He has been very good.
In fact, the three players most maligned by the learned kennel members have been our three best. Tolman, Elliott and Holland

He looks a lot like dean off home and away. Wasn’t a fan of him couple seasons ago but he’s getting a lot better just needs to work on defence a bit
