Playing career

Sullivan made his first grade debut for Manly-Warringah in 1951. During the same season, Manly finished second on the table and reached their first finals campaign. Manly went on to reach the 1951 NSWRL grand final against South Sydney. Sullivan played at five-eighth as Souths comprehensively beat Manly 42–14 in the final which was played at the Sydney Sports Ground. As of the 2019 season, this is the highest scoring grand final in Australian rugby league history.

Following the grand final defeat, Manly missed the finals in 1952. Sullivan retired from rugby league following the conclusion of this season.[2][3][4][5]

gollark: But the silicon itself isn't very conductive, as far as I know. Improving transfer between the dies will help, but not fix it entirely.
gollark: It's not very thermally conductive though, right? So the underlying die might get warm.
