During 2017, he had to take the year off from rugby due to a knee injury and the time needed for rehabilitation. In 2018 he came back strong with the Brothers Premier Rugby team, captaining the team. He has made over 100 appearances with the team.
Look for Luke to make an impact during the 2019 Major League Rugby season with Houston.
