Bill Yeomans (born in Sydney, New South Wales) is an Australian former rugby league footballer for the St. George Dragons in the New South Wales Rugby League premiership competition.[1]
His position of choice was on the wing.
Before making his first grade debut Yeomans was for a long time the captain of the Dragons reserve side. A quick winger, he often found it hard to break into the superstar St. George side of the 1960s, and eventually moved to Newcastle to become the captain-coach of the Maitland club where he guided his side to the title in 1965.[2]
