Very sad news , I use to see him a lot at various charity events. He was a genuine nice guy which once again highlights how only the good die young. RIP.
Very Sad, i am in shock. I was with him on monday talking about the great 80s team of Parra and Dogs, great man he was. R.I.P Paul.
Yeah Poor Langers. Sad times all round. V smart player. HIs last seasons with Wests were v good. From memory he took over from Gus' playing position with C'bury. True character of that era.
