Dale Copley (born 29 July 1991) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer who last played as a centre or winger for the Sydney Roosters in the NRL.

He previously played for the Brisbane Broncos over two separate spells, as well as the Roosters and the Gold Coast Titans in the National Rugby League.

Copley was born in Ingham, Queensland, Australia and moved to Brisbane at a young age and attended Wavell State High School.

Peter Gahan of the Australian Baseball Federation said that Copley was at one time one of the country's best hitting prospects since Dave Nilsson.

[4] In his third first grade match, in round 20 against the Gold Coast Titans at Cbus Super Stadium, he scored his first NRL career try in the corner from a spectacular flick pass from Justin Hodges at dummy half in the Broncos 18–34 loss.

[14] On 18 January, he signed a three-year contract with the Sydney Roosters starting "with immediate effect through to the conclusion of the 2018 season", after being released by the Brisbane Broncos to free up salary cap.

[17] In round 3, against the North Queensland Cowboys, Copley suffered a pectoral muscle injury in the Roosters' 0-40 loss at 1300SMILES Stadium and he later missed ten weeks of football.

[27] Copley made a total of 15 appearances for the Gold Coast and finished as the club's top try scorer in the 2019 NRL season as they endured a horror year on and off the field.

[28][29] Copley played ten games for the Gold Coast in the 2020 NRL season as the club finished ninth on the table and missed the finals.
