Corey Norman (born 3 February 1991), is an Australian professional rugby league player who currently plays for the Parramatta Eels in the National Rugby League competition. Norman primarily plays as a five-eighth and halfback but can also play at fullback. Norman previously played for the Brisbane Broncos.
Born in Brisbane, Queensland, Norman is of Māori descent. Norman played his junior football for the Beenleigh Lions and attended Keebra Park State High School on the Gold Coast before being signed by the Brisbane Broncos. Norman played for the Broncos NYC Team in 2009-2011, where in 2009 he was awarded as the Broncos Back of the Year. Norman is eligible to represent New Zealand.
In Round 1 of the 2010 NRL season, Norman made his NRL debut for the Brisbane Broncos against the North Queensland Cowboys, beating the likes of Josh Hoffman to the Number 1 jersey after impressing in the trials. Norman made an impression in the opening minutes by saving two early tries before for the 19th minute when he set up Israel Folau in the corner for the first try of the night. Three minutes later, Norman delivered a perfectly weighted pass to captain Darren Lockyer to send him over for the second try of the night which helped the Broncos stay in front for the rest of the game, eventually winning 30-24 at Suncorp Stadium. After the game, Norman was named Man of the Match and became an instant hit with Brisbane fans.
