Coote was simply brilliant. He was the perfect
player to take over the lock position from the
immortal Johnny Raper.
Coote is remembered for his brilliant cover defence,
which often saved games for his country, and his beloved
South Sydney. Coote finished his illustrious career
with the roosters. Coote was a member of four winning
souths teams and won two GF's with Easts.
Coote also captained his country - see Memorable Matches
No13.
