Jason Taumalolo paid tribute to former coach Paul Green for making him a better player and urged anyone struggling with mental health issues to seek help.
“What has happened has really shocked and rattled most of us and it is going to take some time to get over it,” Taumalolo said.
“I’d like to think we are a tight-knit group that we are able to talk to each other, whether we are going through a tough time or something really difficult. Asked if any particular memory of Green stood out for him, Taumalolo mentioned how the coach had made him carry tractor tyres at pre-season training.
