Mark Horo

His eldest son Justin Horo played for Catalans Dragons & Wakefield Trinity in the Super League, Parramatta Eels & was part of the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles team that played in the 2013 Grand Final loss to the Sydney Roosters. ==Playing career==

Horo played at the 1985-1988 Rugby League World Cup and the 1995 Rugby League World Cup. In New Zealand he played for the Te Atatu Roosters in the Auckland Rugby League competition and he later represented the Parramatta Eels, Western Suburbs Magpies and the Auckland Warriors in Australian competitions. He played for the New Zealand Māori side at the 1986 Pacific Cup. Horo played 16 tests for the Kiwis over a ten-year period. He had stunning start to his international career starring in a 13-6 upset win over Australia. He held his Kiwi spot in 1988 with his brother Shane Horo playing in the 66-14 win over Papua New Guinea and the 12-10 win over Great Britain at the Addington Show Grounds in Christchurch. The following year he played against Australia before missing the 1989 Kiwi Tour. Horo regained his Kiwi spot in 1990 under a new Kiwi coach, however for the next four seasons injuries and being out of favour with Kiwi coaches resulted in him not being selected, including missing the Kiwi tour in 1993 (hindsight suggests he and other shock omission Tony Iro should have been selected). ==After Parramatta==

Having difficulties at Parramatta, Horo moved to Western Suburbs. Horo played superbly and in 1995 regained his test jersey playing in all three world cup internationals for the kiwis. Horo was signed by the warriors on a 2-year contract after which he retired. Horo played his last international in 1996. ==Later years==

Mark Horo previously coached the Erina Eagles of the Jim Beam Cup. In 2010, Horo was the co-coach of the New Zealand Māori side with Richie Blackmore. Horo now coaches the Penrith Panthers S.G. Ball Cup squad. Horo is now coaching A Grade at Glenmore Park Brumbies J.R.L.F.C ==References==
