Rory Kockott (born 25 June 1986) is a professional rugby union player who plays as scrum-half for Stade Français in France's Top 14.

After making it to a South African derby final, the Sharks lost narrowly to the Bulls 20–19, despite playing at home, with Kockott coming off the bench during the match.

In his debut season in France, he helped guide Castres to the Top 14 semi-finals, where they lost to Toulouse 24–15.

Kockott scored 13 of their 19 points in the final against RC Toulonnais who had just won the European cup a few weeks ago, earning him the man of the match award.

[4][5] Even former South African coach Nick Mallett urged Kockott to confront Heyneke Meyer about playing for the Springboks.
