Career

[edit | edit source]

Paulo had a brief stint with Ulster in 2009, for whom he made two Celtic League appearances.[2] In 2010 he was named as a member of the Blues wider training squad, however an injury to Ali Williams meant he was called into the full squad. He was a full squad member since 2011. Paulo made his provincial debut for North Harbour in 2011.

In January 2013 he joined the Welsh team Cardiff Blues,[2] making 75 appearances over two seasons.[3] From 2015 to 2017 he played for Benetton Treviso. On 5 June 2017 it was announced he had signed for English Premiership side London Irish from the following season.[4][5] He made 30 appearances for the team before leaving in 2019.[6] He rejoined the Cardiff Blues in 2019 for a one-year contract,[3] leaving at the end of the season.[7] He then returned to New Zealand where he played for the Manawatu Turbos.[8] He was not retained for the 2021 season, moving to Wellington team Avalon.[9][10]

On 23 August 2019, he was named in Samoa's 34-man training squad for the 2019 Rugby World Cup,[11] before being named in the final 31 on 31 August.[12]
