Mullen looked so good early on until we ruined him. He needed Joey next to him for 2 or 3 more seasons for mentoring. After Joey retired we should have partnered him with an experienced half instead of all these young guns or firebrands.
NSW ruined Mullo more than we did. They picked him in an impossible position as a 20 year old and then it destroyed his confidence.
Obviously it wasn’t his fault as we saw after him that no NSW halves were going to beat that QLD team, but Mullo was the first one to be thrown to the wolves and cop the criticism. It was the NSW camp that falsely targeted him with the “next Johns” label, not the Knights.
