Cullen targets World Cup glory
Tuesday, 10 October 2000 15:28All Blacks full-back Christian Cullen has turned down offers to play in Europe to concentrate on winning the World Cup for New Zealand in 2003. The 24-year-old has re-signed with the New Zealand Rugby Football Union for a further three years and will stay with Wellington for the National Provincial Championship and the Hurricanes for the Super 12 Series.
"I'm pretty happy to get things organised," he said, "The World Cup is the only thing I haven't won for New Zealand so I'd really love to do that before I go somewhere else." The 2003 World Cup is being played in Australia and New Zealand.
