Alex Telea (born 25 March 1972) is a New Zealand-born Samoan former rugby union international.[1]

A winger from Lower Hutt, Telea won NZ Colts selection in 1993 and the following year began in provincial rugby with Wellington.[2] He played with the Hurricanes from 1996 to 1999, scoring 14 tries from 31 appearances, before succumbing to a knee injury. Once he recovered, Telea had an overseas stint with Coventry and played provincial rugby until 2006.[3]

Telea was capped five times for Western Samoa, debuting against Scotland at Murrayfield in 1995. He faced the All Blacks in a match at Napier the following year and scored Western Samoa's only try during the first-half.[4]
