Mike Rayer

Michael Anthony Rayer (born 21 July 1965)[2] is a former Wales international rugby union player. A full-back, he played his club rugby for Cardiff RFC and Bedford. He is currently coach to Bedford Blues. A talented and popular player, he played during a period where there was little success in Welsh rugby. He is commonly remembered for scoring two tries as a replacement wing against Scotland in 1994 (replacing fellow Cardiff player Nigel Walker). As tactical substitutions were not allowed at that time scores from replacements were still relatively rare.
