@Duluth farken hell, I never remembered that but do you mean to tell me Cully never played a RWC game at 15? No wonder people spat at John Hart's horse!
Began in 96, played centre in 99, lame by 2003
The brightest flame burns quickest
He could still play in 2003. His timing was a little off though, unusual for him

@taniwharugby said in World Cup all time AB team:
@canefan was all due to how he held the ball, affected his pace, step, bench press, everything.
Is that what baldy told you?

I wonder if this sort of heresy to Cullen fanboys still gets the spittle flecked outrage at cue ball ?
This fanboy is in a spittle flecked outrage with @mariner4life (and obviously always with cue ball) - Cullen was the best fullback in NZ in 2003 (just not the 1996 version).

If not he was certainly in the top 2. But I can see the wisdom of taking future HOFer Ben Atiga

That bait was the equivalent of throwing a 24 pack of KFC over the side to catch a Piri Weepu fish who hasn't eaten in 6 weeks.

I knew it would be you to take the bait . I disagree, also if you really really want to make the team going on tv and slagging off the coach is a stupid thing to do .
Also he has no Maori blood .
We are going to need a bigger boat .

Mark Hammett made that 2003 squad!
So did Caleb Ralph and you could argue he was a better fit for centre than MacDonald for the semi .

My apologies I'm unaware of the history - also, did Whaleoil really only start in 2008? I thought his prime sniping time would have been pre 2008?
Cullen was great in 2003 unless you compare him with 1996-1998 Cullen. He was like late Blanco as opposed to early Blanco.

I do love the story about Wayne Bennett being invited to talk to the 2007 rwc squad after the loss and tearing into the coaches about playing people out of position.
Three rwcs with a fullback at centre ffs .
To be fair, we won the first one with a centre at fullback!

Apologies 2005 https://thespinoff.co.nz/media/01-08-2019/rip-whaleoil-net-nz-2005-2019/
Nope , thought he had lost his edge by 2003 and then he went on a current affairs show slagging off the coach and predicting Ben Atiga would be called up in his place .
Actually I thought he lost it earlier than that, it’s a matter of record Cullen was on a par with Kelleher in the iq stakes and I watched Jeff Wilson make an absolute fool out of him in about 2001 when he was fullback too . Quite often players who lose a yard or two of pace develop a rat cunning through experience to cover for it. All trolling aside I never really saw that in Cullen after about 2000 or so when his knees really started to give out.

I love the fact that the Best fullback England ever produced played for New Zealand and Ireland and never for the poms.
