Eduard Louis Coetzee (born 8 September 1979) is a South African former professional rugby union player.

A Bulls under-age product, Coetzee was a prop and played in the Super 12 for the Sharks, until taking up a contract with French club Aviron Bayonnais in 2005. He crossed over to Biarritz in 2007 and was a member of the side that contested the 2010 Heineken Cup final. In 2011, Coetzee undertook a tour of Argentina with the French Barbarians.[1] He announced his retirement at the end of 2011 on the advice of doctors, following a series of head knocks.[2]
