The best lock to have ever played for p-P-PENRITH!
You are not often correct, but this I agree with. Colin van der Voort, realistically his only challenger, was a great Panther but didn't have Isaah's all round skills, nor his durability. Luke Lewis was another good one, but he only played lock a relatively short time before leaving the club.

Regularly bagged by the peanut gallery. Now the best lock in the world.

Unfortunately he shares the same weakness as Boyd Cordner. He is quite susceptible to concussion. Probably will end his career in the same fashion.

The thinking man's Boyd Cordner.
Boyd was a tough customer (not as tough as he thought as it turned out) but really he was a third prop playing in the backrow, especially for NSW. Yeo is so much more, with ball playing skills Boyd could only dream of but with the hard straight running as well. The best 13 in the game.

No challenge from former Kangaroo Trent Waterhouse?

Freddy played Lock for the Panthers on occasion. He was a pretty reasonable footballer.

Just to be clear, the peanut gallery isn’t generally bagging him.

It’s bagging Smug.

Mohammad Ali was a tough customer as well.

Look what happened to him.
