Holmes helped Western Province win the Vodacom Cup for the first time in 2012, he made 9 appearances and scored 2 tries. He also played his first Super Rugby game later in the season.[2] As a result of a loose forward injury crisis, Holmes debuted against the Lions on 30 June 2012. He started the game in the number 6 jersey and was replaced in the 52nd minute by Tiaan Liebenberg in a 27-17 Stormers win.[3]

After the 2012 Currie Cup Premier Division season, he joined Italian National Championship of Excellence team Petrarca Rugby for one season and then moved to Glasgow Warriors.[4]
