Tommy Gallagher (born 10 September 1983) is former a rugby league footballer who played as a prop but also appeared as a stand-off, second-row or loose forward.

Gallagher was born in Dewsbury, and grew up in Birstall.

Gallagher is a product of the Leeds academy, but has had spells with Hull Kingston Rovers, the Keighley Cougars, the London Broncos, the Widnes (two spells), the Batley Bulldogs (two spells), the Rochdale Hornets and the Swinton Lions before joining the Leigh Centurions in time for the 2012 season. Tommy Gallagher is the elder brother of rugby league footballer John Gallagher.

Gallagher initially ended his playing career in 2015, but came out of retirement for the 2018 season. Tommy is now known as the most handsome firefighter in Lancashire, although afraid of heights and fires, this doesn't stop him sleeping on the job.
