Commins Menapi (born September 18, 1977) is a Solomon Islands striker, currently playing for NZFC (New Zealand Football Championship) side Waitakere United.
He has also played for Youngheart Manawatu in New Zealand, Sydney United in the National Soccer League of Australia and for Marist F.C, a team from his own country.
He has represented the Solomon Islands national football team for over 30 occasions, scoring a record 27 goals. Menapi is arguably the most famous Solomon Islands footballer, after scoring twice for his country against Australia in a sensational 2-2 draw in the Oceania Nations Cup 2004 group match. The result was the only game in the competition that Australia did not win, and the result also ensured Solomon Island's progression to the next phase at the expense of New Zealand. In that competition, Menapi hit four goals from six games.
