Should I TradeM. HolmesDEFin SuperCoach 2026?

$578,500 · 114 avg · BE 85 · 10 games · Bye R12

ROOKIEBIBLEVerdict
— HOLD

Holmes posted 91 in Geelong's 54-point home demolition of Collingwood — it clears his 85 BE but the 33 disposals across a blowout partially inflates the number. At $579.4k averaging 128, this is below-par output in a game that handed scoring opportunity. Cash gen is slightly negative at -$858/round, and the potential DEF DPP upgrade at the next positional review remains live speculation. Hold as the standout DEF premium — but skip the captain loop this round and look for a more neutral matchup next week.
