Bullet heads to the Lions

TOM Fullarton says the toughest part of switching from the NBL to the AFL was telling long-time mentor and Brisbane Bullets coach Andrej Lemanis.

The Brisbane Lions have won a cross-sport tug of war for the 19-yearold with Fullarton signing a Category B rookie contract with the AFL club for this season and 2019.

Fullarton, who stands at 200cm, was elevated to the Bullets’ 11-man roster for the 2018-19 NBL season after serving as a development player.
