The oldest of the Luyt brothers, John was first a back but became a forward because there was an abundance of backs at the SA College when he moved there from Victoria College. The three Luyt brothers played in three tests together on the 1912-13 tour – against Scotland, Wales and England.
Luyt street : G.J. van Eck.
LUYT. Daar was drie Luyt-broers wat rugbyspringbokke was. In 1910 speel Freddie (Frederick Pieter, bygenaamd "Lammetjies") en Richard Robert vir Suid-Afrika teen die Britse toerspan alhier, en in die 1912/13-Springbokspan na Brittanje het 'n derde broer nl. John Douglas saam met die ander twee aan die internasionale wedstryde teen Skotland, Wallis en Engeland deelgeneem. So iets het nog nie weer 'n gesin in ons land te beurt geval nie. Freddie en Richard - albei spelers vir Hamiltons was natuurlik van Oubaas Mark se "manne". Hulle is onderskeidelik op 26 February 1888 en 16 April 1886, te Ceres, K.P. gebore en het aan die Victoriakollege gestudeer. Eersgenoemde was prokureur en laasgenoemde verbonde aan die Ou Mutual.
"Richard Luyt was acknowledged to be the most brainy centre in the country, a player with a rare gift for summing up a situation and the possessor of a dummy in which he did a roaring trade."
John Douglas het as voorspeler vir Crusaders in die O.P. gespeel. Hy is in 1885 op Ceres gebore en was leerling aan S.A.C.S. en student aan die Victoriakollege.
