Danny K. Kaleopa (born 3 May 1966) is a former Samoan rugby union player.
[2] His debut with Western Samoa was during a test match against Korea at Tokyo, on 8 April 1990.
In 1993, he played for the Samoa national team at the first ever Rugby World Cup Sevens, taking part in a series of test matches on 28 March 1993, when the teams of New Zealand (24-14) and Fiji (14-12) were defeated, and in the game against the New Zealanders, he scored several tries.
[3] In 2011, after Samoa's disastrous performance at the World Cup in New Zealand, Kaleopa supported team captain Mahonri Schwalger, who called for reforms in the Samoa Rugby Union and to understand the reasons for the Samoan failures.
[4] The reason for Schwalger's indignation was the scandalous behavior of the national team manager Mathew Vaea, who was fired from the national team for drunkenness and neglection of duty at the World Cup.
