"We don't come with just some belief, we come with a lot of belief," Holder told reporters in Brisbane on Monday. "If we don't believe, there's no point being here. We have to play aggressive cricket, we have to play smart cricket. The Australians are the No.2-ranked side in the world. They will come at us pretty hard, as we saw in the Caribbean.
"[In the Australia-New Zealand series] We saw weaknesses where we can exploit. There's some new faces, mixed with some guys who have been in rich veins of form. It's important that we put some pressure on their middle order.
"If we get early wickets with the new ball, we can get guys like Shaun Marsh, guys who are trying to make their way back into this side, put them under some pressure to score. Once we can do that it should be a relatively competitive series. They have some in-form batsmen, David Warner and Steve Smith, so it's just important that we put some pressure on their middle order."

That sounds like the standard interview that most teams will put out before a game or a series starts.
In a way he's right on all counts, if they don't think they can win there's isn't any point being there. Australia ARE ranked number 2 in the world, but they do have weaknesses that can be exploited.
I don't think he's said anything that people didn't already know.
