Luke was born and raised in Charleville, a small town in Western Queensland and played football there until the age of 17. In under 12's his schoolboys team won the queensland foundation cup against Murgon at ANZ Stadium in Sydney.

He made his National Rugby League debut on 1 June 2008 for the South Sydney Rabbitohs playing against the St. George Illawarra Dragons. He played at full back and scored a try late in the second half.

While attending Redcliffe State High School, Capewell played for the Australian Schoolboys team in 2006.

Following a season-ending shoulder injury to regular five-eighth John Sutton during Souths' campaign to make the 2010 NRL season's finals, Capewell was named to fill in the role.
