Gold Coast SUNS rookie Kyal Horsley is on the verge of being elevated to the senior list and could make his AFL debut against North Melbourne at Etihad Stadium on Saturday.

The GC SUNS will lodge paperwork with the AFL today, elevating Horsley to the senior list, replacing Jarrod Harbrow who will be placed on the long term injury list.

Horsley, 24 years of age, has been dominant for the GC SUNS reserves in the opening round of the NEAFL this season.

Originally from Kalgoorlie City, Horsley won the 2011 Best & Fairest with WAFL club Subiaco and finished second in the Sandover Medal (WAFL’s MVP).

Horsley played 89 WAFL games and came to the GC SUNS as a ready made AFL player whose body shape and size will provide added protection for the clubs young list.

A long left foot kick, Horsley was the GC SUNS first selection in the 2012 Rookie Draft.
