Playing career
Early career
As a 16-year-old, Holland trained with the Newcastle Knights' S. G. Ball Cup team, but decided to finish his electrical apprenticeship instead.[3] After making his name with the Singleton Greyhounds as a halfback,[4] he joined the Cessnock Goannas of the Newcastle Rugby League in 2014, transitioning to fullback and playing in the 2014 Grand Final against the Western Suburbs Rosellas.[5] At the end of the season, he received a call from the new coach of the Newcastle Knights' New South Wales Cup team, Matt Lantry, asking him to train with the side for the 2015 season.[3] Holland went on to play for the Knights in the New South Wales Cup, scoring 18 tries in 16 games,[6] and played at centre in their 2015 New South Wales Cup Grand Final win over the Wyong Roos on 27 September 2015.[7] On the same day, he was named at centre in the 2015 New South Wales Cup Team of the Year.[8] On 3 November 2015, he signed a 2-year contract with the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs starting in 2016.[9]
2016
In Round 2 of the 2016 NRL season, Holland made his NRL debut for the Bulldogs against the Penrith Panthers.[10][11] After the scores were locked up at 16-all in the last minute of the game from a Moses Mbye try, Holland kicked the conversion after the full-time siren to win the match.[12]
