Career highlights

Xavier Clarke (born September 28, 1983) is an Indigenous Australian rules football player with the AFL's St Kilda Football Club.

Clarke was selected by the Saints with the 5th overall pick in the 2001 AFL National Draft. He played 57 games during his first three seasons as a Saint. In the 2005 season, however, Clarke struggled in form and his season was ended early when he injured his hamstring in the Round 17 game against Collingwood.

Originally, Clarke wore No. 20 guernsey. When former St Kilda champion Nathan Burke retired in 2003, he awarded Clarke his No. 3 Guernsey.

Clarke's brother, Raphael, also plays for the Saints.
