Cullen set to exit Munster

IT APPEARS Christian Cullen’s days as a Munster player are over.

For a second successive week, the All Black legend, who posted a record 46 tries in 58 tests between 1996 and 2002 for New Zealand, has been left out of a shortened match-day squad ahead of tomorrow’s Magners League clash against Llanelli Scarlets at Musgrave Park (kick-off 7.30pm).

Cullen, on a one-year rolling contract, has made just nine appearances, scoring one try in another injury-plagued season. His last appearance was against Scarlets in Munster’s 24-15 Heineken Cup quarter-final defeat.
