Richard Cockerill (born 16 December 1970) is an English rugby union coach and former player and was most recently the manager of Top 14 side Montpellier.
He made his England debut against Argentina in 1997 and later his first match at Twickenham was as a half-time replacement for the Bath hooker Andy Long in Clive Woodward's first match in charge against the Wallabies; Long was young and clearly out of his depth.
Cockerill's performance earned him a starting place against New Zealand, where he stood up to Norm Hewitt during the haka (see book cover).
A dip in form led him to lose his first choice hooking position at Leicester to Dorian West.
He was also dropped from the England side after criticising Woodward in his book entitled In Your Face.
