Craig Moore (born 12 December, 1975 in Canterbury, Australia) is a defender for the Australia national football team, and also currently plays for Borussia Mönchengladbach.
Moore, a product of the Rangers youth system, has become an important player in Rangers' defense in recent seasons.
Moore was the captain of the "Olyroos", the Australian Olympic Football Team at the 2004 Olympics at Athens, Greece, when they managed to reach the quarter-finals. However, his involvement angered Rangers manager Alex McLeish as it forced him to miss the start of the Scottish league season. As a result Moore was stripped of the club captaincy and was forced to the fringes of the team, he was sold the Borussia Mönchengladbach in January 2005.
