World news – AU – former Holmes, Addo Carr sharks are chasing glory

There was a time when Josh Addo Carr and Valentine Holmes lit Shark Park in one of the quietest backlines under 20 years ever collected.

Queensland confirmed Tuesday that Holmes will transfer from left back to left wing in Wednesday’s decisive match at SunCorp..

There he’ll be tasked with shutting down Addo-Carr, which has speeded up Origin II and made Nathan Clear’s early kicks of great value.

The duo had previously bonded with each other in 2018, but their playing days go back to 2014 when they were teammates at Cronola..

“He was just one of those kids who was going straight to first grade, and everyone wanted to be in position,” Addo Carr told AAP.

Holmes was the star of the team, scoring goals and capturing points after collecting 14 attempts in 15 matches before starting his career in the National Football League.

Addo-Carr was the new face picked up by James Shepherd, Sharks 20s coach, who seized his chance to top the scoring charts with 17.

“Someone was injured in the first match, and I was in the eighteenth place,” said Ado Carr..

Shepherd still considered Holmes and Addo Carr his best discoveries, as Holmes spotted a video clip from Townsville and Addo Carr from an experiment after receiving information about his speed.

Banning Shane Flanagan first class means he didn’t coach them together at under 20 years old, but he has watched them since then score 16 attempts at 14 Origins.

“They are both very talented. Shepherd said when you see these boys playing toddlers, they stand out..

“It’s very fast. Josh is the fastest kid I’ve ever trained and Val is not far behind.

“I coached (Addo Carr) in 2015 when Shane came back, and in a team struggling, Fox was exceptional.

“Val was just a bright light. He was one of those players from his early career until the last time he never dropped any speed.

But despite all the hype about her pace, Shepherd knows it’s going to be more than just absolute speed that will decide her fight Wednesday night.
