Adam Cooney (born September 30, 1985) is an Australian rules footballer, playing for the Western Bulldogs in the AFL.
As a solid midfielder, he was picked up as the number one draft pick in 2003 AFL Draft as a priority pick. When he debuted on the scene in 2004 his hairstyle became his trademark, his long golden locks instantly recognisable and sometimes taken advantage of by the opposition.
He has explosive pace and loves kicking goals whether from outside 50 on the run or a snap near the goals. Cooney had a vastly improved 2005 season: he played every game, averaged 20 possessions a game and kicked 21 goals. He was ranked 2nd for clearances in the Bulldogs team.
He wears the number 17 for the Bulldogs.
