WELCOME back, Elijah.
AFL Senior Coach Michael Voss has confirmed that Elijah Hollands will play his first game of the season tomorrow.
Returning in the game where he made his Carlton debut last year, Hollands has made his way back into the line-up after taking leave from the game due to personal reasons.
With a VFL game under his belt a fortnight ago and a solid training block behind him, Voss confirmed that Hollands has “done what he’s needed to” ahead of the Good Friday SuperClash.
“He took his leave and has got to work ever since. I can’t fault the way he’s been able to approach the last little period of time - he’s earned the right to get back in.
“He’s got a role to play, a very important role to play for us. We want to be able to establish that consistency with the way he plays: he improves our system at his very best.
“The expectation is that he comes in, gets his job done and will hopefully contribute to a team.”
The Blues will announce their team at 6:20pm.
