Paul Dawson is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1970s, spending his entire career with Newtown in the NSWRL competition as a second-rower. He is the twin brother of Chris Dawson who also played for Newtown.

Early life

Dawson attended Sydney Boys High School and he played rugby union for Eastern Suburbs before switching to play rugby league.[2]

Playing career

Dawson made his first grade debut for Newtown in 1972. In 1973, Jack Gibson was made the new head coach at Newtown and the club qualified for the finals that year. Dawson played in all of Newtown's finals matches as the club reached the preliminary final before losing to Cronulla. Dawson enjoyed his best season personally as he finished with 8 tries. After Gibson departed the club, Newtown failed to qualify for the finals and in Dawson's two final years at the club they finished last on the table claiming the wooden spoon. 1977 would be Dawson's final year in first grade and he retired at the end of the season.[3][4]

Post playing

After his Rugby career finished Dawson and his twin brother Chris both became Physical Education teachers at public high schools in the northern beaches of New South Wales.

The Dawson brothers and families moved to Queensland in 1985 with Paul working at Coombabah State High School.

In 2018, Dawson's twin brother Chris was arrested for the murder of his wife, Lynette Dawson. He was extradited to Sydney on 6 December 2018 to face trial. He appeared at Central Local Court that day and was refused bail and had been remanded in custody.[5] On 17 December 2018, Chris Dawson was granted bail and his family paid {{AUD}}1.5 million bail to be released.[6]
