Mark John Cueto (born 26 December 1979 in Workington, Cumbria) is an English international rugby union player.
In typical game play, players attempt to move towards a goal through individual control of the ball, such as by dribbling (running with the ball close to their feet); by passing the ball from team-mate to team-mate; and by taking shots at the goal.
Cueto made his debut for Sale Sharks against Bristol Shoguns in 2001 and made the England tour to Argentina.

 icNorthWales - Cueto talks up Lions chances   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
England winger Mark Cueto is hoping to swap the red rose of England for the red shirt of the British and Irish Lions on their tour to New Zealand this summer.
Cueto did his chances of being selected for Sir Clive Woodward's squad no harm at all with three scintillating tries in England's 39-7 demolition of Italy at Twickenham on Saturday.
While Cueto is aware of his direct competition for places in the squad, he does not believe in constantly fretting over the form and fitness of others.

Mark Cueto hopes an impressive start to his England career that has yielded eight tries in his first eight Tests will help him secure a place on the British and Irish Lions tour of New Zealand which gets underway in June.
Cueto, often the intended recipient for the cross-kicks of Sale team-mate and England flyhalf Charlie Hodgson, showed there was more to his game than height and strength by providing the final pass for the tries scored by Joe Worsley and Josh Lewsey against Scotland before touching down himself.
Cueto has been one of a group of relatively inexperienced players, including Hodgson, scrumhalf Harry Ellis, centres Olly Barkley and Jamie Noon as well as prop Matt Stevens, who have all benefitted from Robinson's consistent backing.

Jason Robinson scored a brilliant early try for the Sharks, but it was fellow England winger Mark Cueto who stole the headlines, going over late in the game to score his seventh try in seven Premiership games - a league record.
Second-half tries from Daniel Larrechea, Sebastien Chabal, and Cueto's effort, along with 10 points from the boot of Charlie Hodgson, gave the scoreline a glossy look for the home side, not to mention a bonus point, but in truth they never really had to break sweat in recording a 29-3 win.
Just as looked as if Cueto was going to be denied his record, the ball was worked wide to the 25-year-old winger with five minutes left, and as he showed the defence a clean pair of heels, as he has done many times before.
