Clint Greenshields (born 11 January 1982 in Coffs Harbour, New South Wales) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer for the North Queensland Cowboys of the National Rugby League, having previously played for the St George Illawarra Dragons and for the Catalans Dragons of the English Super League. He plays somewhat of a utility back role, allowing him to slot in at fullback, centre or at five-eighth.
A former Sawtell resident, Greenshields attended Toormina High School, who compete every year in the Robbie MacKinnon Cup against other local schools of the Coffs Harbour district. His junior club was the Sawtell Panthers JRLFC, a club recently crowned Group 2 senior champions.
Greenshields made his first grade debut for the St George Illawarra Dragons.
He moved to Catalans Dragons in 2007 and took the role as first-choice full back, becoming a key player. On 10 May 2008 it was announced that Greenshields has signed a new three-year contract with the French Super League club.
Greenshields was named in the 2008 Super League Dream Team, beating world class talents like Brent Webb and Paul Wellens to be named as the outstanding full back of the Super League season. He was also one of the front runners for the Man Of Steel award in 2008.
