William "Bill" Horder^[3] was an Australian professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1940s and 1950s. He played for Western Suburbs and Eastern Suburbs as a prop. He was the nephew of Harold Horder.^[4]

Playing career

Horder made his debut for Western Suburbs in 1948 and was a member of the Wests team which won the premiership that year defeating Balmain 8–5 in the grand final.

In 1952, Horder was a member of the Wests team which won their fourth premiership defeating South Sydney 22–12 in the grand final. This would be the last premiership Western Suburbs would win before exiting the competition in 1999 to merge with the Balmain Tigers.
