David Westley (born 7 June 1974) is a retired professional rugby league footballer of the 1990s and 2000s. A Papua New Guinea international front-rower, he played club football for the Canberra Raiders, with whom he won the 1994 Winfield Cup Premiership before spending time with the Parramatta Eels^[1] and the Northern Eagles.

Westley's junior club was the Cairns Kangaroos. He was Canberra's Rookie of the Year in 1993, and was a part of the Grand Final winning side in 1994. The following year, Westley was selected to play for Papua New Guinea in the 1995 World Cup in England.
