Bob Cooper is a former professional rugby league player in the New South Wales Rugby League (NSWRL) competition. Cooper primarily played in the back row for Western Suburbs Magpies, North Sydney Bears and the New South Wales State of Origin team. Cooper was selected to represent New South Wales for the inaugural Origin game in 1980.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=State Of Origin - Game 1, 1980 )〕 In 1982, Cooper was given the equal-longest suspension in rugby league history after he ran in to join a brawl and left three Illawarra Steelers flattened during a match at Wollongong Showground. Chairman of the NSWRFL's judiciary, Jim Comans, when handing down a fifteen-month suspension to Cooper, said, ''"Acts such as these must be obliterated from the game, and I'll begin by obliterating you."'' Cooper attempted to keep fit during his suspension by playing Australian rules football with St George in the Sydney Football League in 1983 and won the reserve competition's best and fairest award. After only four games with North Sydney in 1984 he dislocated his shoulder and retired from football. Cooper was named in the second-row when the Western Suburbs Magpies named their Team of the Eighties.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.weststigers.com.au/default.aspx?s=article-display&id=30925&title=vest,-keato,-cogger-all-honoured )〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bob Cooper (rugby league)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
