Luke Williamson (born 2 June 1978 in Strathpine, Queensland is a professional rugby league player who currently plays for the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles in the Australian National Rugby League (NRL) competition. He has previously played for the Adelaide Rams, Canberra Raiders and Northern Eagles. His current position is at lock but he began his career playing in the centres and at five-eighth.

Williamson took on the role of lock following the retirement of Ben Kennedy at the end of the 2006 season. A goalkicker during the earlier years of his career, in 1997 Williamson was Adelaide's top pointscorer with 70 points and in 2002 he was Northern Eagles' top pointscorer with 98 points. His record for most points in a match is 20 (3 tries, 4 goals) in Round 26, 1999, playing for Canberra against Balmain Tigers.[1]

His father, Henry Williamson, represented Queensland in the 1970's.[citation needed]
