I honestly don’t know on this one, don’t think I have made a comment on him.

Holroyd reminds me a bit of Tyrone McCarthy. Smaller end of the scale but full of guts and courage, particularly in defence. 


I think the gamble of Russell not paying off has done him a favour by getting plenty of minutes again this year, but ultimately I think we’d love a bit of strike on the edge. I wouldn’t mind him as the “third” back rower, and would be cheap to keep around. I just think he’s a few years away from reaching his physical peak. 

John Bateman has a similar physique to Holroyd and has been very successful in Super League and the NRL.

Holroyd will be a great player for Wire and should replace Fitzgibbon when he leaves us.

Surely, his best position ,until he bulks up ,is on the shoulder of the ball carrying half or hooker to make use of gaps in the defence ,but his defence is unquestionable.

Average gain : 5.42m Meters per game : 32 Tackles : 260,  Missed Tackles : 33 (11%) 0 breaks, 0 offloads.  Clearly he needs to develop physically as he is only 13 stone*. I hate seeing him bringing the ball out from our 10 and getting smashed and pushed back.  He is courageous, enthusiastic, and has a great engine but he's not yet a starting 17 player for a side allegedly aiming to win the league. * https://warringtonwolves.com/players/f8ab17a0-1ef0-11ed-882d-3304d7b7806b/
