Kyabram’s Thomas Holman is starting to hit his stride in the Bombers’ forward line this season.
His numbers speak for themselves, and with the power of GVL Data, the sports desk at The News decided to take a deeper dive into the Bombers forward’s return this year.
Holman’s been a standout this season in a Kyabram forward line bursting at the seams with talent, with a 24-possession, nine-mark and six-goal game against Tatura, his best return of the season.

Last weekend, Holman kept the Bombers in the contest early against a dangerous-looking Mooroopna, registering five contested marks and four marks inside 50.
Holman also hit the scoreboard on two occasions at important stages of the game, also contributing three score assists.
He has 25.7 from his 32 scoring shots this season, averaging 2.3 goals and 2.5 score assists a game.
Holman slides in at 10th on the leading goal-kicker charts, but what is even more intriguing is that the Bombers forward leads the league for score assists this season with a whopping 28.
Holman is integral to the action inside the arc for Kyabram, and while he may not hit the scoreboard every game, his selflessness and work for other forwards is what would please coach Paul Newman the most.
