Middle forward Erin Clark is back with the One New Zealand Warriors after signing a three-year deal to the end of 2027.
The Manurewa Marlins junior starts the 2025 season just five games short of his 100th first-grade appearance after reviving his NRL career with the Gold Coast Titans.
His debut for the Warriors as a 19-year-old in 2017 was his only appearance before he left the club mid-season to take up a three-year contract with the Canberra Raiders. He stepped aside from top level rugby league later that year, coming back to Auckland to play local football for two years ahead of making a fresh start with the Titans.
Used in the halves in his NYC under-20 career with the Warriors, Clark made his NRL comeback in 2020 when he started at hooker or was on the bench in 10 appearances for the Titans.
Since late 2022 he has operated as a middle forward, predominantly from the bench, a role which has saw him in career-best form in 2024, averaging 100 metres and 22 tackles a game (only 14 missed tackles all season).
Clark (Ngāti Porou, Ngāpuhi) played at hooker for the Māori All Stars in their 16-10 win over the Australian Indigenous All Stars in Sydney in 2022.
He was named in the Kiwis’ extended squad for the mid-year Test against Mate Ma’a Tonga in Auckland in 2022 and was included in the New Zealand squad for the 2024 Pacific Championships tournament. He became Kiwi #842 when he was brought in as a late replacement for the 54-12 win over Papua New Guinea, impressing in his 32 minutes on the field with 124 metres from 12 runs, 58 post-contact metres, five tackle breaks, an off load and 17 tackles.
Clark finished with 94 matches for the Titans including 84 of a possible 96 games over the last four seasons (and all 24 in 2024). He made 45 NYC appearances for the Warriors in 2015, 2016 and 2017 plus 15 New South Wales Cup games in 2016 and 2017.
