Brett White is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer who last played for the Canberra Raiders, and formerly of the Melbourne Storm of the NRL. An Australian international and New South Wales State of Origin representative prop forward, he played his whole career at the Storm, with whom he won the 2007 and 2009 premierships, before signing with the Canberra Raiders from 2011.

Growing up in the NSW high country in Berridale, White started his rugby league career with the Cooma Colts. He was a promising junior and was graded by St. George Illawarra Dragons from school. White was a key member of the Dragon's Jersey Flegg Cup team but leg and ankle injuries halted his progress in 2003 and 2004. With props such as Luke Bailey and Jason Ryles ahead of him, White was unable to make his way into first-grade and he relocated to the Melbourne Storm.

White made his first-grade debut in Round one, 2005, scoring a try against the Newcastle Knights at Olympic Park. At the end of the season he was named the Storm's Rookie of the Year after becoming Robbie Kearns' starting front-row partner. He was a member of the Melbourne Storm team to face the Brisbane Broncos in the 2006 NRL Grand Final, losing 15–8. The next year he was a member of the winning grand final against Manly.

White played in the 2008 NRL Grand Final defeat by the Manly.

He played in the 2009 premiership against Parramatta.
