Background

Born in Tokoroa, New Zealand, his junior club was the Te Atatu Roosters in West Auckland. His mother, Gail, is of English descent and his father, Te Whata, known as Walter, is Maori (NZ indigenous).

Playing career

Bradford Bulls

Paul captained Bradford at scrum half back in the 1996 Challenge Cup Final and became the fourth player ever to achieve what was a Challenge Cup final record of three tries, being awarded the Lance Todd Trophy for man-of-the-match.[4] He was the 1996 Bradford Bulls season's top try scorer and still holds the record for most tries scored for the Bulls.

Paul went into his winter loan spell with rugby union club Harlequins.{{citation needed|date=July 2013}}

Paul played for Bradford Bulls as his brother Henry's halves partner in the 1999 Super League Grand Final which was lost to St Helens R.F.C..
