Laurie Slack (17 March 1915 – 5 February 1991) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Geelong in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Slack was a wingman, from East Geelong, who spent six seasons in the VFL. He was a member of Geelong's 1937 premiership team and had 15 kicks and seven marks in the grand final. Earlier in the season Slack missed four games through suspension for attempted striking, ending a four-year run where no Geelong player had fronted the tribunal. He remained a regular member of the side until 1940, when he was picked just once.
