Tony Clubb (born 12 June 1987 in Gravesend, Kent) is an English professional rugby league footballer for Wigan Warriors of Super League. An England international representative centre, he has played his whole professional career to date with the London Broncos up until the end of the 2013 where he signed for Wigan Warriors[2] for an undisclosed fee.

His first team début came in a home fixture against the Bradford Bulls on 18 February 2006.

The big centre was selected to play for the Harlequins rugby union side in the Middlesex Sevens at Twickenham Stadium.[3] He was, however, unable to play as he was called back for Harlequins RL to replace the unavailable Paul Sykes in the match against Wigan Warriors.

He has been named in the England training squad for the 2008 Rugby League World Cup.[4]

He has been named in the England team to face Wales at the Keepmoat Stadium prior to England's departure for the 2008 Rugby League World Cup.[5]

He made his England début in the victory over Wales on 10 October 2008.[6]

On 6 November 2010 he became the tenth ever England Rugby League player to score 4 tries in an international fixture. This was achieved in England's 36–10 win over Papua New Guinea in their final game of the 2010 Four Nations tournament.
