Australia Day 2000. Paul William Harragon of Kahibah was today awarded the Order of Australia Medal ( OAM ) in the Australia Day honours list. Pauls award was for for services to Rugby League Football and to the community. Certainly a deserving recipient. Paul certainly hasn't been lost to Rugby League, He will be involved on The Footy Show, with 2GB in their Radio call, and He has involvement with Radio Station 2HD and NBN Television in Newcastle during the Football season.

Pauls family play a major part in His life, and deserve to be included in any tribute to this great Aussie.

Won't be too long now, I've got My scanner up and running.
