Across 33 matches, Clarkson contributes consistently in both directions, averaging over four and a half tackles and more than four carries per game — a workload that underlines a prop comfortable doing the unglamorous work deep into matches. His peak outputs, reaching 12 carries and 12 tackles in a single game, show he can step up his involvement significantly when the contest demands it. Four tries from a tight forward add a finishing dimension that goes beyond the purely functional.
