Thanks. I certainly wouldn’t rate him as the best lock in the competition this season, Yeo and Carrigan would definitely be the two fighting for that, but besides them I see Horsburgh as next best along with Tohu Harris and Tino. He is always a passionate player and no-one can argue with that but he is also a great runner of the ball, averaging around 120 metres a game, only behind Yeo, Carrigan, Harris and Tino while also getting up and around 40 post contact metres per game, also only slightly behind only Yeo, Carrigan, Harris and Tino. He averages the 11th most tackles made throughout the whole competition and is 2nd for all locks. He is also great at getting an offload away and continuing play going forward being 3rd in the competition for all locks this season. Being picked for origin along with Carrigan and Tino showed how much of a great season he is having and certainly earned his spot.
