Quick Contact


Tim Horan is widely regarded as one of the greatest centres in Rugby Union history. He made his Wallabies debut as a teenager in 1989 against the All Blacks, quickly establishing himself as a game-changing player. At the 1991 Rugby World Cup, Tim played a pivotal role in Australia’s triumph, most famously scoring from David Campese’s iconic over-the-shoulder, no-look pass in the semi-final—a try replayed endlessly in rugby highlights.

In 1994, a serious knee injury threatened to end his career, but after 12 months of recovery, Tim made a remarkable comeback at the 1995 World Cup. His illustrious career culminated in 1999 when he became one of only six players to win two Rugby World Cup medals, helping Australia secure its second title and earning a year’s supply of Guinness for scoring the fastest try of the tournament. Tim’s skill, resilience, and leadership have made him a legend of the game.

Tim MC’d our Brisbane West Airport (Toowoomba) open day and did a fantastic job. We had over 28,000 people on the day and Tim engaged them over a six-hour period in a professional and relaxed way. I would certainly recommend Tim to host or MC at any small or large event. Joe Wagner Group
Tim Horan… as MC… created just the right mood that we wanted, communicating our key Etihad information while still keeping the event relaxed and fun. Eithad Airways
We engaged our Sport Australia Hall of Fame member, Tim Horan AM, to take on the role of MC at our recent ‘Inspire our Nation’ – an exclusive event, which we host in partnership with our major sponsor, Etihad Airways. Known as one of Australia’s best-ever rugby players, it is clear that the world-class skills Tim had as an athlete have translated incredibly well into his off the field media and hosting work. Tim did a stellar job, he is highly professional and a well-rounded MC who injects a sense of vibrancy into the proceedings and importantly, was a pleasure to deal with. His ability to engage the guests was first class and he did an outstanding job in interviewing our special guest panel members, Dawn Fraser AO MBE; Ian Healy and Wally Lewis AM. If you are looking for a professional, knowledgeable and highly entertaining MC, we would recommend Tim Horan AM. Australian Sports Hall of Fame
