Wayne Primmer (born 9 January 1959) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Essendon in the Victorian Football League (VFL).^[1]

Recruited from Woomelang, Primmer was rover and had a particularly strong season in 1978. He kicked 24 goals in his first six appearances that year, with seven goal hauls against South Melbourne, Carlton and Richmond.^[2] By the end of the season he had amassed 47 goals, which were enough to top Essendon's goal-kicking.^[3]

He spent the 1980 season playing for West Torrens, then was at Lalbert in 1981 and 1982, the first as captain-coach. In 1983 he joined Hamilton as captain-coach and from 1984 to 1987 he played with Benalla, captain-coaching them in every year except 1986.^[4]
