Cyril Aston Eastlake (21 August 1930 – 30 September 2007) was a New Zealand rugby league player who represented his nation in the sport.
Eastlake said: "I enjoyed the game tremendously and had some success in scoring a couple of tries, mainly because both sides appeared to be a few players short and there seemed to be a lot more room to run before someone tackled you.
In the afternoon, Eastlake played rugby union for St Peter's College against Sacred Heart.
During that World Cup competition, Eastlake's qualities were described in the opening game of the tournament, against France (captained by the legendary Puig Aubert).
[5] In the Australian 1963 Rugby League season Eastlake was a player-coach for a New South Wales country team.
[6] Eastlake was inducted into the New Zealand 'Legends of League' in 1995, an acknowledgement of the skills he brought to the game during an international career that ran from 1951 to 1960.
