The rugby league world is mourning the sudden death of premiership-winning coach Paul Green.
The 49-year-old passed away at his Brisbane home on Thursday morning.

A post-mortem will be carried out to determine the cause of his death.

Friends have revealed Green had not complained about being ill and have been left shocked and devastated by his passing.

He has been regularly mentioned, this year, as a contender to make a coaching comeback with a number of NRL clubs.

Green was in Sydney only last weekend for the Cronulla Sharks reunion.

Green played for Cronulla, North Queensland, Sydney Roosters, Parramatta and Brisbane, winning the Rothmans Medal in 1995. He was Queensland State of Origin and Australian international representative halfback. As a coach Green guided the Cowboys to their first premiership in 2015.

He last coached Queensland’s State of Origin side in 2021.
