4. FIVE potential landing spots for Corey Horsburgh
The Dolphins
The Dolphins are losing a stack of experience, and bodies at the end of the season. Jesse Bromwich is retiring at year's end while Tevita Pangai Jr looks as though he's Redfern bound. Unfortunately Tom Flegler's short-term career is in severe doubt.
This leaves the competition's new boys relying on second rowers turn middles. No team on this list needs an Origin level prop/lock in their ranks more than the Dolphins. There are some super, young talents on the Dolphins roster, but they need a pack leader. Horsburgh could be that pack leader, in the right situation.
Trusting his career to a rookie coach, Kristian Woolf in this case, is a big risk but it certainly provides Horsburgh with a big opportunity. Horsburgh has the size, aggression and runs on the board to walk into the Dolphins lineup and become a big time player. Whether or not he has the temperament for such a situation is the big question.
