The young No. 10 was named to play his first game following a string of impressive performances in the SANFL and at training.
"Luke is a tough and courageous player who really embraces the contest," Crows Head of Football Adam Kelly said.
"Following a period earlier in the year where we were managing Luke's workloads, he has been able to string together a number of good games in the SANFL.
"We are excited about seeing him at AFL level."
