Fabian Holland

BIOGRAPHY

The first Dutch All Black comes in the form of towering lock, Fabian Holland. Holland  relocated from the Netherlands to New Zealand at age 16 to attend Christchurch Boys’ High and quickly ascended through the ranks, from his school first XV to NZ U20s and an Otago debut in 2021. He made his Highlanders debut in 2022 and his unmissable presence and set-piece execution saw him earn the call-up to the All Blacks XV last year, where he delivered a man-of-the-match performance against Munster.

Holland’s dominance in lineouts, impressive engine, physicality in the loose, sharp breakdown technique, and smart handling make him an exciting prospect in the second row.
