Les Kiss (born 9 December 1964) is an Australian former professional rugby league player in the New South Wales Rugby League a former rugby league coach and the current Director of Rugby at Ulster. He was previously Assistant Coach for the Ireland national rugby union team.

Kiss was a Past Brothers junior who went on to play 100 first grade games in the NSWRL Premiership for the North Sydney Bears between 1986 and 1993. A handy goalkicker, he had an injury-restricted career, and retired in 1993.

Les Kiss scored only 29 tries for Norths in his 100 games but despite not being the fastest winger, and with a best haul of 9 tries in a season (1986), he was considered to be one of the best defensive wingers in the Sydney competition. He also kicked 38 goals from 64 attempts (59.38%) for the Bears with his best season again being his debut year (1986) when he kicked 23/38 at 60.53%.

Les Kiss, originally from Queensland, first gained selection for The Maroons in Game 2 of the 1986 State of Origin series at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Playing on the wing, Kiss scored a try on debut in a losing side (NSW won the 1986 series 3-0) and he scored another in Game 3 at Lang Park.

Kiss was then selected to play for Australia in the second test against New Zealand at the Cricket Ground and retained his spot for the final game in Brisbane.
