Across 15 Super Rugby appearances as a replacement, Mullan has built a consistent profile as a high-volume defender, averaging over five tackles per outing with a single-game peak of 11. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, but he contributes meaningful metres in limited time, suggesting an efficient gain-line presence when introduced from the bench. The balance between his tackle and carry workload points to a player trusted to shore up defence while still offering forward momentum in tight phases.
