Rugby league careerVuna signed with the New Zealand Warriors and made his first grade debut late in 2004, in Round 24 against the Parramatta Eels.[2] Vuna went on to play five games for the club over the next three years before leaving, seeking regular game time.{{Citation needed| date = January 2011}} Vuna signed with the Newcastle Knights in mid-2007, seeking to break into first grade. He was picked in the Knights' squad the week he was signed, after the squad suffered several withdrawals. Vuna established himself in the Knights first grade squad, playing in over fifty matches for the club between 2007 and 2010.{{Citation needed| date = October 2010}} In Round 24, 2010 Vuna scored 4 tries against the Brisbane Broncos equalling the Newcastle Knights' club record for most tries in a game.{{Citation needed| date = October 2010}} Representative careerVuna was selected in the New Zealand national rugby league team' training squad in 2007 but did not make the final squad.{{Citation needed| date = October 2010}} Vuna was also named in the Kiwis' 2008 squad training for the World Cup but played in three matches for Tonga instead.[3][4][5][6] In October 2008 he was named in the final 24-man Tonga squad.[7] In 2011 Cooper was named in the initial 50-man squad for the Tongan Rugby Union Team for the Rugby World Cup.{{citation needed|date = June 2011}} Rugby union careerIn May 2010, Vuna signed a two-year contract with the Melbourne Rebels.[8][9][10][11] He played the Rebels' pre-season trials against Tonga and Fiji; against the Crusaders he ran on with former Wallabies Stirling Mortlock and Julian Huxley.[12][13] He debuted in Super Rugby for the first round of the Rebels season against the Waratahs. He ended the season playing 14 games of the Super Rugby season 2011 and scored 4 tries. Vuna played his first game for Australia 9 June 2012, against Wales in Brisbane. The Rebels media unit reported how immensely proud Vuna felt to have been selected, and that a lot of training had gone into his preparation.[14] Vuna played 71 minutes of the Test, the first of a series of three between Wallabies and the visiting Welshmen. Vuna was selected again for the second test, in Melbourne a week later.[15] In August 2012, Vuna dislocated his shoulder while playing for the Endeavour Hills club. A week later he underwent surgery. According to a Wallabies spokesman, Vuna could expect to face a six-month recovery period.[16] This could see him sidelined until February 2013. In May 2013, it was announced that Vuna would leave the Rebels at the end of the season to join Japanese Top League club Toshiba Brave Lupus.[17][18][19] He joins head coach Damien Hill and fellow Rebels players James O'Connor, Gareth Delve, Ged Robinson, Nick Phipps, Nic Henderson, James King, Tim Davidson and Richard Kingi on the list of departing Rebels at the end of 2013.

In front of over 12,000 spectators, the Rebels overcame a 24-point half-time deficit to achieve a remarkable 38–37 come-from-behind victory over the Highlanders, ending Vuna's tenure as a Rebels player on a winning note, with Vuna scored two tries in the same match.[20][21] With 13 Rebels tries to his name, Vuna left the Rebels as their highest try scorer to date.
