Clarke Signs
Warrington Wolves have signed on loan hooker, Jon Clarke from London Broncos. Jon, 22 has spent two months at Warrington Wolves scoring two tries in seven appearances for the club. Warrington has signed Jon until the end of the 2002 season. A former GB academy captain, Jon represented his country at this level on ten occasions. Jon started his first grade career with Wigan Warriors in 1997, before a move to London Broncos in 2000. Head Coach, Darryl Van de Velde commented, "Jon is an excellent prospect for the club, he has played extremely well for us on loan from London Broncos. He is improving all the time and I am glad that we have signed him. The future is in bright young players like Jon. He's a local lad from Lowton and it's an indication of the club looking at home-grown talent. The signing of Jon Clarke is a clear indication of the club going forward and looking to the future." Jon Clarke commented, "I'm delighted to have signed for a club with a Rugby League tradition. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the fans and the club for making me feel welcome and giving me the opportunity to play rugby. My focus now is Saturday's game against St Helens and then the aim of the season of making it into the Top Five."
