When proud Dubbo boys Isaah Yeo and Matt Burton run onto their hometown Apex Oval on Sunday for Penrith against South Sydney, the pair will also be playing for the man that created the pathway to help them achieve their NRL dreams.
Respected Dubbo local Mick Wilson, who played an integral role in the founding of St John’s junior rugby league club, where Yeo and Burton started their careers, sadly passed away last week aged 77.
