Charles "Charlie" Luke (born 22 June 1915) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Footscray in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Luke, a forward, came to Footscray from Phillip Island.[1] He played 13 of his 18 career games in 1937 and kicked at least two goals in each of his home and away season appearances that year.[2] His final season tally, 44 goals, was enough to top Footscray's goal-kicking.[3]

He spent much of the 1939 season playing for Yarraville and transferred to Gippsland club Morwell the following year, as coach.[4][5]
