The proud Dubbo product hopes to add to his one Country jersey gained last season for the final fixture in Mudgee in 2017 in front of friends and family and hopes as many clubs as possible follow Penrith's lead in taking a game to the bush each year.

"Obviously the City-Country game is massive out in the country," Yeo told NRL.com of the fixture.

The new deal will see the 21-year-old remain with the Panthers until at least the end of the 2019 season.

"Penrith has been my home since I was 17 so to be able to continue to represent the club is something I’m very proud of," Yeo said.

"I'd like to thank Anthony Griffin and Phil Gould for showing faith in me and allowing me to sign a new deal before the season has kicked off.
