Luke Jones (born 2 April 1991) is a rugby union footballer. His regular playing position is either lock or flanker. He represents the Melbourne Rebels in Super Rugby having previously played for the Western Force.
Jones represented the Australian Schoolboys in both 2008 and 2009. He was a Schoolboys' captain in 2009, and named to play in a test against New Zealand in Brisbane. He also captained NSW Schools in 2009 at the Australian National Championships. He was selected to tour the UK with the Australian Schoolboys in late 2009, and selected again to play Ireland. Jones then returned to Australia to train with the Western Force in Perth. He had signed with the Force while at St Pius X College in Sydney, to become the first forward in Australian rugby to sign a full-time professional contract whilst still at school.
Jones had a busy 2010. He made his Super Rugby debut in Wellington against the Hurricanes; he hadn't yet turned 19 when he came off the bench to help Force captain Nathan Sharpe lock the scrum in the competition's second round. At the 2010 JWC in Argentina he scored one of Australia's nine tries to help the Australia wallop Scotland 58–13 in a pool match. And he helped Sydney Uni win its club competition.
