Luke Tapscott Biography

Friday, 31 October 2014
Melbourne delist Luke Tapscott but may re-draft him again as a rookie.
Monday, 4 April 2011
Young Luke Tapscott appears to have settled comfortably into the Melbourne defence after spending his first year at the Demons in the midfield or up forward.

"Dean (Bailey) just wanted me to sort of rebound of half-back so it's a new learning experience for me so I'm still working on quite a few things," Tapscott said.

"I suppose I feel pretty comfortable out there. I just go out there and try and give my best each week."

Luke Tapscott makes his AFL debut for Melbourne at the MCG with 19 disposals (16 kicks and 3 handballs), 7 marks and a tackle in a draw with Sydney.
Thursday, 24 March 2011
Melbourne coach Dean Bailey says midfielder Luke Tapscott will be unveiled in their opening game for 2011 against the Sydney Swans.

"It was pretty frustrating. When I did my hip in the pre-season last year it was a big setback for me," Tapscott said about missing most of 2010 with injury.

"Watching everyone else have a run around, there was obviously a bit of jealousy but it was great to watch them all develop and I got to watch a different side of the club."

Monday, 25 January 2010
Melbourne recruits Jack Trengove and Luke Tapscott have signed three-year deals instead of the usual two offered to new draftees.

Trengove and Tapscott competed together for South Australia in the under 18 championships with both their families becoming close even before they were drafted.

"On draft night the Trengoves had a pretty clear understanding of where Jack would go in the pecking order but they were very interested in where Luke would go," Melbourne list manager Tim Harrington said.

"They were in contact with Luke's parents the morning of the draft just to speak to them and say good luck. As it turned out he joined Jack at Melbourne."
