 Clubb started the season impressively making 15 appearances and scoring one try before an illegal crusher tackle against Hull FC saw him requiring surgery.Due to the crusher tackle he did not play for another nine months meaning he was not part of the squad that won the 2016 Super League Grand Final against Warrington, thus he has still not been on the winning side at Old Trafford despite Wigan's three visits in three years.After nine months out he made his comeback against Salford Red Devils in Round 1 of Super League.
