Isaah Yeo, a 30-year-old rugby league player, has evolved from a country boy in Dubbo with aspirations of playing 12 NRL games to a potential sports legend.
Since making his NRL debut in 2014, Yeo has not only surpassed his father's career first-grade game total but has also amassed a remarkable array of individual and team accolades.
He is a four-time NRL premiership winner and has enjoyed success on the international stage, including participation in the World Cup and State of Origin.
As captain of his country and the reigning Golden Boot winner, Yeo's career is storied.
Currently, Yeo is preparing to lead the Westpac NSW Blues in the first match of the State of Origin series in Brisbane.
His leadership and performance were pivotal to NSW's success last year, and defending the title as captain could mark a significant milestone in his career.
However, despite these accomplishments, Yeo remains grounded; he embraces his identity as a quiet family man and a industrious individual, showing no interest in "resume building."
Yeo's journey exemplifies dedication and humility, reinforcing his status as a formidable player in rugby league history.
