Nathan Massey is a Scotland international rugby league footballer who plays as a fullback. He most recently played at club level as professional for the Canberra Raiders in the NRL.

Background[]

Massey was born in Lidcombe, New South Wales, Australia. He has Scottish ancestors, and was made eligible to play for Scotland due to the grandparent rule.

Playing career[]

Canberra Raiders[]

Massey played for the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs in the 2010 Toyota Cup.

Massey debuted at fullback for Canberra in round 9 of the 2011 National Rugby League season against Manly-Warringah following an injury to Josh Dugan, the regular fullback.

International[]

Massey has Scotland heritage so he was able to represent the Scottish national team. Scotland's coach Steve McCormack was aware of this and he therefore picked Massey to be a part of his squad in the 2014 European Cup competition. He made his international début, in the tournaments opening game, against Wales.
