Holmes was a highly physical player and being taller and heavier than most scrum halves of the time, he was known for his frequent close range tries especially following pick up from the back of the scrum and the break down.[1] Holmes was a member of the first round of players to be inducted into the Cardiff RFC Hall of Fame.[2]
