Who was Weary Dunlop?
Sir Edward (Weary) Dunlop was a hero to many Australians. A brilliant student and qualified as a pharmacist and surgeon, Weary Dunlop lived his life to the full and in service of others. Before the war, Weary Dunlop was an international rugby player who represented Australia. He was a fiercely proud Victorian and Wallaby representative. In World War II, he served in many battles and became a legend through his heroic work amongst the prisoners on the notorious Burma railway. In 2008 Weary Dunlop became the first Victorian to be inducted into the Wallaby Hall of Fame. Sir Edward`s family is in full support of WEARY DUNLOP RUGBY and believe it is the sort of project he would have loved.
