Across 14 appearances as a replacement, Clarey's output is defined almost entirely by his defensive work, averaging over four tackles per game and reaching double figures in a single outing. His carrying is minimal in volume and gain, pointing to a role built around physicality at the breakdown and defensive organisation rather than ball-in-hand threat. Within his limited minutes per match, the tackle numbers suggest he hits the ground running whenever introduced.
