Luke Beveridge (born 23 August 1970) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for Melbourne, Footscray and St Kilda in the Australian Football League (AFL) during the 1990s. Small in stature, he mainly played as a rover and is the grandson of Collingwood premiership player Jack Beveridge.
Beveridge played in St Kilda’s 1996 AFL Ansett Australia Cup winning side - the club's first AFL Cup win.[1]
Beveridge played in 7 of 22 matches in the 1997 AFL Premiership Season home and away rounds in which St Kilda Football Club qualified in first position for the 1997 AFL Finals Series, winning the club’s 2nd Minor Premiership and 1st McClelland Trophy.[2]
In 2002 Beveridge was elected in the AFL Greek Team of the Century[3] reserved for players having full or partial Greek heritage[4] since his grandfather originates from the island of Samos.[5]
