Mullett has a number of strengths, decent enough pace (not super quick though), kicking, long kick of the footy, top 5 rebounder last season, natural winger, goal kicker and is a hard worker.

However, his decision making under pressure is poor (which burns you in defence), is weak one-on-one, has little scope of improvement left in him, his disposal numbers stay the same (don't increase much beyond 20 a game), his ground ball gets aren't great and his body work is poor for a defender.

His stats suggest a good year, but he's a solid depth player more than an outright best 22 player. He got as many games as he did purely due to long-term injuries to Marley Williams, Nielson, EVW, MacMillan and Wright, all of whom are better or have the potential to go past Mullett's ceiling. His age was also a concern at North as we look to get younger guys in who were pushing Mullett for a spot late last season. He would be purely depth for North next season, so it was a case of letting him go for a bit more opportunity.

As for the other spuds and old farts on the North list atm, a few are contracted till next year, but are definitely out the door. Guys like Anderson, Swallow, Waite, Thompson and Thomas will be gone by the end of next season, merely because they are contracted for next year and are needed purely as depth, not best 22.

Top 5 for rebounds and a known goal kicker is nothing to be sneezed at. Play him on the wing and you'll have no drama's. Most of his issues are defence related.
