Bit of a joke.
It should have been either Cook or Ailomi last year instead of Finn, and this year it Should have been Chad Redman, Chris Knight, Aloi Taufaoo, Tyler Sullivan, Chanel Mata'utia or Will Smith - who are all in the NYC squad ahead of Clacherty (Clacherty trained with NYC in the off season, but they found in the trials that he is a poor defender and dropped him back to Ball - where he wasn't great either IMO).
Clacherty has been named in the CCC side for the schoolboys championship and the NSW under 18s - which is probably why he got the Carlsen award I suppose.
