A former Canberra Raiders<\/a> and Newcastle Knights<\/a> back-rower has agreed to join a feeder club of the Perth Bears<\/a> ahead of the 2026 season as he attempts to gain a spot on the NRL’s expansion team’s roster in the future.<\/p>\n Most recently playing in the United Kingdom with Featherstone Rovers<\/a> and York City Knights (loan), Clay Webb<\/a> has become the latest individual to join the Brisbane Tigers in the QLD Cup<\/a> reserve-grade competition.<\/p>\n A member of the 2023 NSW Cup<\/a> Team of the Year, the 23-year-old has established himself as a strong player on the edge over the past few seasons and has yet to reach his potential as a rugby league player.<\/p>\n RELATED: 2026 QLD Cup Player Movements and Squads<\/a><\/p>\n Also able to play in the middle as a lock or in the front-row, Webb captained the Canberra Raiders<\/a> to the Under-19s SG Ball Cup<\/a> title during his youth days before playing 50 appearances for their NSW Cup<\/a> side.<\/p>\n Offering a deadly right foot step that allows him to maximise his line-breaking capabilities, he also spent one season with the Newcastle Knights<\/a> which saw him make 14 appearances for their reserve-grade side before making the move overseas.<\/p>\n The Brisbane Tigers have also announced the arrivals of Benjamin Taylor (Manly Sea Eagles<\/a>), Harry Durbin (New Zealand Warriors<\/a>) and Zack Lamont<\/a> (Penrith Panthers<\/a>), among others.<\/p>\n
