With eight years experience in the Netherlands, Holman is yet another Aussie who is well versed in the Dutch system of play, and he has enjoyed regular squad call-ups since debuting for the national team in 2006. Starting out as a forward, Holman is primarily used as an attacking midfielder and has invariably come on for Tim Cahill as a substitute for the Socceroos. Though mostly coming off the bench no Australian outfield player played more matches than Holman during qualification for South Africa 2010.
