He mostly played on the {{rlp|WG}}. He was described as one of the most respected players in the NRL.[4] Early lifeCovell was born in Goondiwindi, Queensland, Australia. He was raised in Murwillumbah and attended Mt St Patrick's College. Covell played early football for the Murwillumbah Colts. NRL careerCovell debuted with the Wests Tigers in 2003 at the age of 21. The winger's limited game time saw him join the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks in 2004. In 2007, Covell made his Test Debut for New Zealand against Australia, in which a young Australian side defeated the Kiwis 58-0. Covell however was injured in the early minutes of the match and it was to be his sole international appearance.[5] In 2008, Covell won the Dally M Pointscorer of the Year award, playing a major role in the Cronulla Sharks stellar season. He went on to score over a thousand points in his career. Covell was known for his lack of speed, but made up for it in determination, and was a fluent goalkicker.[6] "I know some people out there think I'm too slow for the NRL. Not talented enough. But that's okay ... I've always known it too," Covell once said.[7] In 2010, Covell became the first NRL Player to have (LARS) ligament augmentation and reconstruction surgery.[6] Not long after his return from surgery, he announced he intended to retire at the end of the 2010 season, saying, "I’m proud to say I played for the Cronulla Sharks and Wests Tigers, I’ve had a great time and I wouldn’t change a thing."[4] Post-NRL careerCovell returned home to play for the Murwillumbah Mustangs in the Northern Rivers Regional Rugby League. He played in the second row and as the team's goalkicker. In 2012, Covell won a premiership with his late penalty goal resulting in the Mustangs overhauling the Grafton Ghosts in the final minutes to win 27-26.[8] Covell played for the Mustangs again in 2013, losing to Ballina in the grand final.[11] Covell is an Australian Apprenticeships Ambassador for the Australian Government and an Apprentice Mentor in the NRL's Trade UP With The NRL Program.[9] In 2014, while undertaking a plumbing apprenticeship and studying at TAFE, Covell represented the New South Wales Tertiary team.[10] References1. ^NRL Stats {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080727181706/http://www.nrlstats.com/archive/players.cfm?PlayerID=546 |date=27 July 2008}} {{National Rugby League top points scorers}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Covell, Luke}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/players/Luke_Covell/summary.html|title=Statistics at rugbyleagueproject.org|publisher=rugbyleagueproject.org|date=31 December 2017|accessdate=1 January 2018}} 3. ^Yesterday's Hero {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120810160305/http://www.yesterdayshero.com.au/PlayerProfile_Luke-Covell_360015.aspx |date=10 August 2012}} 4. ^1 {{cite news|publisher=Daily Telegraph (Sydney)|title=Luke Covell retires, Sharks chase Colin Best|author=David Riccio|url=http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/luke-covell-retires-sharks-chase-colin-best/story-e6frexnr-1225903422591|accessdate=11 August 2010|date=10 August 2010}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Luke Covell|url=http://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/players/luke-covell/summary.html|accessdate=11 August 2010| publisher=Rugby League Project}} 6. ^1 {{cite news|publisher=Daily Telegraph (Sydney)|title=How Luke Covell defied medical convention|author=Phil Rothfield|url=http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/how-luke-covell-defied-medical-convention/story-e6frexnr-1225878590254|accessdate=11 August 2010|date=12 June 2010}} 7. ^{{cite news|publisher=Herald Sun|title=Not everyone can be Greg Inglis|author=Nick Walshaw|url=http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/nrl/not-everyone-can-be-greg-inglis/story-e6frfgbo-1225904599548|accessdate=17 August 2010|date=13 August 2010}} 8. ^{{cite news|author=Greg Martin|work=Daily News|title=Mustangs are grand final champs|url=http://www.mydailynews.com.au/news/mustangs-are-grand-final-champs/1528789/|accessdate=5 March 2013|date=3 September 2012}} 9. ^http://www.australianapprenticeships.gov.au/ambassador/luke-covell 10. ^1 {{cite web| work= nrl.com|title=Covell's shock at NSW call-up| first = Tony| last = Webeck| url=http://www.nrl.com/covells-shock-at-nsw-call-up/tabid/10874/newsid/78462/default.aspx|accessdate=1 September 2014|date=15 May 2014}} 9 : 1981 births|Australian rugby league players|Australian people of New Zealand descent|New Zealand national rugby league team players|Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks players|Wests Tigers players|Country New South Wales Origin rugby league team players|Rugby league wingers|Living people |
