Cornish Pirates sign prop Jamie Clark after Newcastle departure

Cornish Pirates have officially signed prop Jamie Clark for the 2026-27 season after his recent departure from Newcastle Red Bulls. The 23-year-old had played four matches with Newcastle, all as a substitute, since joining on a short-term deal in April. Clark has a background with Australia's under-20 team and the New South Wales Waratahs' academy but is eligible to play for England through his father. Pirates' head coach Alan Paver expressed excitement about Clark's potential contribution, particularly in set-piece play as the team prepares for the upcoming Championship season.
