Dyson, born in Melbourne, was educated at Brisbane's John Paul College and played for the Australia national under-19 rugby union team. He made his Super 12 debut for New South Wales in 1999 after spending several seasons in the Shute Shield.[2] In 2000, Dyson moved to the Queensland Reds and immediately caught the attention of Australian selectors, featuring in 10 Test matches that year for the Wallabies as a prop. This included all four matches in Australia's Tri Nations title win. His career was ended by a serious neck injury in 2004.[3]
