GOLD Coast veteran Nick Holman has announced his retirement at the end of the campaign after an 11-season career at two clubs.
Initially drafted to Carlton in 2014, Holman played nine games for the Blues before being delisted after two seasons.

After two years out of the AFL system, he was picked up as a rookie by the Suns in 2018.
He has gone on to play a further 144 games and kick 79 goals for the Suns, and will get a farewell game against St Kilda at Marvel Stadium on Thursday night.
Suns coach Damien Hardwick paid tribute to the 31-year-old's commitment and dedication to the club.
"You don't hope with Nick, you know exactly what you're going to get week in, week out," Hardwick said.
"That's why our club and our members and supporters love him so much. The way he attacks the ball, the way he gives 110 per cent for this club every time he takes the field, that's something we can lean into, and more importantly, bring to the game this week.
"He is the quintessential role player. He sets a standard for our football club and the challenge for our group now is understanding that his legacy is the standards that he leaves behind.
"He's been a remarkable servant of our football club and hopefully we get the opportunity to celebrate one final win for him on Thursday night."
