Tim Horan AM (born 18 May 1970) is a former Australian rugby union footballer of Irish Descent, raised in Queensland.
The Downlands First XV of 1987 was undefeated throughout the year, including matches against Sydney's Kings, Riverview and St Joseph's colleges.
1994 saw Horan's career nearly end with a horrific knee injury in the Super 10 final and he would spend over a year in rehabilitation before making the squad to the 1995 World Cup defence in South Africa.
He missed the 61–22 loss to South Africa but returned for a 15-all draw with England, helping Ben Tune and George Gregan score a try apiece.
Despite suffering from severe food poisoning the night before the match,[citation needed] he played against South Africa in a 27-21 extra-time win.
He is also ambassador for Aunties and Uncles - a non-profit organisation offering friendship, role-modelling and support for children in single parent or parentless families.
In February 2021, Horan was announced as a part of the Stan Sport commentary team to cover Super Rugby AU.
