In the quiet aftermath of a difficult season, Carlton coach Michael Voss has confirmed what the game's observers had begun to sense — that the club and young forward Elijah Hollands have reached a crossroads. The 23-year-old, who crossed from Gold Coast to join his brother at Carlton in late 2023, has been encouraged to seek a trade despite holding a year on his contract, a reflection of how far the relationship has drifted from its early promise. It is a story as old as sport itself: talent alone cannot bridge the distance between potential and trust.
