From Surfers Paradise, McLuckie played with AFL Queensland State League club Southport until his recruitment by Brisbane as a zone selection at the 1990 AFL draft.
McLuckie was Brisbane's leading goal-kicker and disposal getter with four goals and 25 disposals in his debut in 1993 against Collingwood at Victoria Park.[2] He ended up averaging 19 disposals from 13 appearances that year and was also a wingman in the Brisbane reserves premiership team.[2]
McLuckie made the combined Queensland-Northern Territory State of Origin squad in 1993 but only played seven games for Brisbane and was delisted at the end of the season.[2] He returned to Southport, for which he won a Joe Grant Medal in 2000, as the best player in the AFL Queensland State League grand final.
In 2015 McLuckie was appointed Executive Principal of the Gold Coast-based Varsity College.[3] Prior to this, McLuckie held the position of Principal at Southport State High School for a number of years.
