His All Black career ended in 2000 at the age of 24 for some reason. He was way better than Leon McDonald and Mils Muliaena at fullback. He had so much more to give. What a pleasure watching Andre 'Rolls Royce' Joubert and Cullen play in the same era. Arguably the two best fullbacks ever.

Him and Blanco were the best in my humble opinion to wear the shirt....although my Dad still says JPR haha.

Cullen, Lomu, Mehrtens, Fitzpatrick, Brooke, Bunce, Umaga, Marshall, Spencer..... All big names. I wish I started watching rugby sooner so I could've seen them in action first hand.

Man, Wilson, Cullen and Lomu… will there ever be a more formidable back 3⁉️While Boks were busy trying to mitigate Lomu, Cullen and Wilson just blew us open. The perfect decoy.

Hard to pick a time when the allblacks were at their peak. But the Cullen era is surely arguably the best.

Cullen is the best fullback of all time. The fact that he made these plays against the best opposition makes it all the more convincing. Monday - January 18, 2021.

Ist pick in any Bull Rush team let alone ANY Sport for that matter considering his skill set is that of the greatest all-rounder we will never see! To think he would of been even faster if he relaxed his shoulders and didn't hunched them like he did!
