Clements, born in Goulburn, grew up playing rugby league as a back, until picking up rugby union during high school and establishing himself as a lock. He had the distinction of captaining Sydney Combined Second Division schools.[2]

A Parramatta first-grade player, Clements didn't gain Wallabies selection until the age of 30 for the 1982 New Zealand tour, following good performances for the Sydney representative side. He was capped in the 3rd Test at Eden Park.[3]
