I think Holman's trouble is he is a bit slow at his size and shape, I recall him being a slower taller version of Graham.
At AFL level there are guys 5cm or 10cm taller, 5kg to 10kg heavier, who are as fast or faster than Holman.
He'd be competing for midfield roles with Cripps, C.Curnow, E.Curnow, Gibbs, Murphy, etc., etc.. and away from the midfield he competes with the likes of Plowman, Docherty, Byrne, etc., etc..
They all have him covered in one way or another.
I can't recall if he had both sides, he'd need it as like Sam Mitchell it helps cover for the lack of pace. It makes a player appear faster because they can always turn into space.
