Quade Santini Cooper (born 5 April 1988) is a professional rugby union player and occasional boxer. Although a New Zealand citizen, he has represented Australia in rugby at international level. He currently plays for the Queensland Reds in the Super Rugby competition in Australia. His preferred position is fly-half.

Cooper was born in Auckland, but moved with his family to Tokoroa at a young age. He attended Forest View High School before moving to Brisbane, Australia, as a 13-year-old in 2001.

In Brisbane, Cooper attended Springwood State High School before winning a scholarship to Anglican Church Grammar School (Churchie), where he starred for the 1st XV rugby team in 2005 and 2006. Churchie shared the Queensland GPS Premiership with Brisbane State High School in 2005.

Cooper was selected for the Australian Schoolboys in both 2005 and 2006. He played Fly-half and won nine schoolboy caps, which was the equal record at that time.

Cooper joined the ARU-funded high performance program with the National Talent Squad, and signed with the Queensland Reds for the 2007 season.

Cooper made his debut for the Reds in Round 2 of the 2007 season in super 14, against the Crusaders at Jade Stadium, Christchurch. The Reds went on to lose the game 33–22.
