Anthony Murray (died 16 May 2006) was a New Zealand rugby league player and coach who played professionally for Wigan.
Murray played for the Takahiwai Warriors alongside his twin brother, Thomas. During the 1980–81 Rugby Football League season, Murray played for the Wigan club and made two appearances off the bench.
Murray was a Northland and Northern Districts representative and played for the New Zealand Māori, touring Britain in 1983 and competing in the 1986 Pacific Cup.
Murray coached Northland in 1991 and 1992.
Murray was later influential, along with Harry Clyde, in getting the Northern Storm accepted into the 2006 Bartercard Cup.
Murray collapsed and died on 16 May 2006 aged 47. The Northern Storm's first win, 40-22 against Wellington on the following weekend, was dedicated to Murray.
