Elijah Hollands (born 25 April 2002) is an Australian rules footballer playing for the Carlton Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).

Early life[edit]

Hollands was born in Adelaide, South Australia.[1] His father, Ben, was a professional Australian rules footballer who played 8 AFL games for Richmond in 1999 as well as spending years on Sydney and Port Adelaide's AFL lists.[2] Hollands lived the first nine years of his life in Adelaide before relocating to Wodonga on the Victoria-New South Wales border.

He didn't start playing football until he began with Auskick at the Wodonga Bulldogs[3] going on to play junior football in the Ovens & Murray Football League and made his senior debut for the club at 16 years of age.[4] Leading into his final year of junior football, Hollands was touted as a potential number one draft pick before tearing his ACL and missing the entirety of the 2020 NAB League season.[5] Despite his injury, he was drafted by the Gold Coast Suns with pick 7 in the 2020 AFL draft.[6]

AFL Career[edit]

Gold Coast (2021–2023)[edit]

Hollands made his AFL debut in QClash 23 against the Brisbane Lions in round 19 of the 2022 AFL season and kicked two goals in his first game, including a goal with his first kick.[7] He received a Rising Star Nomination two weeks later in round 21 against Hawthorn, collecting 23 disposals and kicking two goals. [8]

Carlton (2024–)[edit]

Hollands was traded to Carlton following the 2023 AFL season, joining his younger brother Ollie.[9]
