Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Combative carrier with defensive reliability

Across 30 matches, Clarkson has built a profile defined by consistent involvement at the gain line and disciplined defensive work, averaging close to five tackles per game over more than 1300 minutes of action. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, though peak performances of 12 carries and 37 metres in a single outing show he can step up his ball-in-hand contribution when the game demands it. Four tries across the dataset add a further dimension to his threat around the fringes.
