Brendan Quigley is a Gaelic football player from Laois in Ireland.

He usually plays at midfield for Laois and in 2003 was part of the Laois team that won the All-Ireland Minor Football Championship title for the first time since 1997.

In 2004, he was part of the minor team which won the Leinster Minor Football Championship. The following year saw him offered a chance to play Australian rules football along with his colleague Colm Begley, as he travelled to Australia to undergo a trial for the Brisbane Lions.

In 2006, Brendan returned home to Ireland and was part of the Laois team that won the Leinster U21 Football Championship and graduated onto the county's senior team later that season, forming a successful midfield partnership with his club colleague, Pauric Clancy.

2007 saw Laois retain the Leinster U21 Football Championship with Brendan again starring in midfield as they beat Offaly to retain the title.

Brendan has now joined the Carlton Blues for a trail to once again play in the Australian Football League
