Sixth cap. I need to do some digging but that must put him pretty high up the list for caps won while with DRFC.

Why let the facts get in the way of a dig at one of our players? The commentators on BBC NI said Michael O'Neill rates Luke highly and so does DF. But what do professional coaches know?

How can you judge an individual player’s performance as overrated if he rest of the team was poor and he barely got a kick??

[drfchound]

Just another excuse for someone to have a go at one of our players.
Similar to people ridiculing England players too.

Really great to know that people like this are allegedly behind our teams.

At least N.Ireland didnt concede while he was on the pitch.

I'm not a massive Luke fan, but I thought he looked assured and comfortable in that role yesterday, and his passing was simple and precise. If he could get a little fitter and sharper, I'd be more than happy for him to play that role regularly for us.
