Watched Cullen in the trials. My impression is that he is very small and fairly slow however he throws a good pass, seems like a smart footballer and can create opportunities. I don't remember him missing any tackles that day. As I was surprised by his small stature I was interested to see how he went against a larger opposition. Overall not brilliant but thought he did a competent job. Hoping he might turn out to be a step up from Godinet in his kicking game, organising and defence.
The truth is , statistically Cullen is one of the worst defenders to play NRL in 2016 : before the weekend v Wests Tigers ; Cullen made 55 tackles and missed 18 . That's 73 attempted tackles and only made 55. Nothing to brag about . But I hope he improves .
