Dylan Cockburn

Dylan Cockburn is a Scottish flanker born on 6 August 2005, one of the younger forwards on the books at Glasgow Warriors. A classic openside in the making, he is built around the qualities the position demands — a high motor, fierce commitment in the tackle and a keen instinct for competing over the ball at the breakdown. Quick to the contact area and tireless in his pursuit of work, he offers exactly the sort of nuisance value a side wants from its back row, harrying opposition ball and helping to secure quick possession for the attack. At this early stage his focus is firmly on development, adding the physical conditioning and game understanding required to bridge the gap to consistent senior rugby. As one of the promising young forwards in the Warriors pathway, his progress will hinge on translating that natural energy into the polish and decision-making of the professional level.
