Australian-born with Welsh heritage, Luke Dyer was a Lower Mountains junior who played lower grades at Balmain Tigers and Melbourne Storm before joining Penrith Panthers. He was a member of the 2003 St. Mary’s-Penrith Cougars squad in 2003, playing in the centres in their Premier League grand final loss. In 2004 he was elevated to the NRL squad, making his NRL debut on the wing against Melbourne at Olympic Park. It would remain his solitary NRL appearance despite being part of the NRL squad also in 2005. He went to Castleford Tigers in the Super League for 2006, making 20 appearances and scoring five tries before joining Hull Kingston Rovers in 2007 where he played 27 times and scored 12 tries. He signed for Celtic Crusaders in 2008 and helped them to promotion to Super League, keeping his place in the side for the next two seasons and ending up with 25 tries in 66 games for the club. After the 2010 season, he returned home to Australia, where he played for the Central Comets in the Queensland Cup for couple of seasons, before a change of career took him into the abseiling industry, working in the Northern Territory.
