From what I can see a clearance is credited to the player who has the first disposal in the chain that clears the stoppage area to either teams advantage.
Question then is whether a tap or hitout from the ruck contest is counted as a disposal or whether a disposal is determined strictly as a legal disposal by hand or foot?
It has to be kick or handpass that clears the stoppage area - even if it goes directly to an opponent. I guess that would be picked up in the turnovers/disposal efficiency stats.
