Career
A utility, Holmes had his most productive year in 1992 when he made 19 appearances and after two more seasons was traded to Fitzroy. Holmes had the embarrassing misfortune of playing in five consecutive wooden spoon sides, with Sydney from 1992 to 1994 and then at Fitzroy in the next two seasons. He is perhaps most remembered as the man who tackled the piglet which had been set loose during a game against Street Kilda at the Sydney Cricket Ground in 1993.
