Terry Cook (rugby league)

Terry Cook is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer who played as a centre, lock and second-row forward in the 1990s.

Cook made his first-grade debut for the Gold Coast in Round 2, 1991, losing 26-8 to the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles.

Prior to the series beginning, sections of the media had labelled the Queenslanders “Fatty’s Nevilles”, the nickname given to the team under inexperienced coach Paul “Fatty” Vautin with the side of “Neville Nobodies” seen as no chance of even winning a game, let alone taking the shield.

Cook played one further season with South Queensland before departing the club at the end of 1996, with the Crushers finishing in last place.
