Tony uses "In Rom.10:4 Paul argues that Christ is the end of the law."   as an example proving that the law no longer exists. 

However, doesn't the word telos, which is translated end here, have a meaning more like "goal" or "point aimed at"?  If sin is defined as missing the mark or point aimed at, isn't Paul saying in Rom 10:4 that following Christ or walking like/as Christ is what satisfies or keeps the law?

It is just that IMO this verse does more to strengthen the argument that Paul was still pro law rather than proving the point that he was anti law.
