Tony Gigot (born 27 December 1990 in Avignon, France) is a professional rugby league footballer for the Catalans Dragons and at international level for France. He previously played for London Broncos, Toulouse Olympique, Sporting Olympique Avignon and Cronulla Sharks. He is able to play in a variety of positions and is considered a utility player.
Gigot spent time in the youth team at London Broncos. He signed with Catalans Dragons in 2010 and made his Super League debut that year, playing a total of 15 games and kicking two goals. He also represented Catalans in the 2010 Challenge Cup where he played 2 games and scored 1 try.
In 2011, Gigot played 7 games throughout the season for the Catalans Dragons, kicking 1 goal. He once again represented Catalans in the 2011 Challenge Cup, where he played 1 game.
As well as playing for the Catalan Dragons, in 2011 Gigot played 9 games on loan for Toulouse Olympique in the 2011 Championship. He scored 5 tries.
After being released by Catalans, Gigot signed with the Avignon Bisons to play in the 2012-2013 Elite One Championship.
Gigot was given an early release by Avignon at the start of 2013 so he could travel to Australia for a chance to play in the Australian National Rugby League (NRL) competition. Gigot spent pre-season training with St. George Illawarra Dragons before signing a one-year deal with the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks. He did not feature for the Sharks at NRL level, however.
