By all accounts from family, friends and colleagues, Queensland football great Paul Green showed no signs of struggling with his mental health before he took his life on August 11.
"Paul wasn't depressed, [he] showed no signs of mental health issues, his family was everything to him," his wife Amanda Green told The Weekend Australian.
Just a day before his death, they were celebrating their son's 10th birthday — laughing and discussing Green's future career plans over birthday cake, pizza and a few glasses of wine.
