John Mullane (born 28 January 1981)[1] is an Irish hurler who previously played as a right corner-forward for the Waterford senior team.
Mullane joined the team during the 2001 championship and immediately became a regular member of the starting fifteen. Since then he has won four Munster winners' medals, one National League winners' medal and five All Star awards. Mullane has ended up as an All-Ireland runner-up on one occasion.
At club level Mullane is a two-time Munster medalist with De La Salle. In addition to this he has also won three county club championship medals.
Mullane is widely considered one, if not the best player Waterford has ever produced. Winning a total of 5 All-Stars (a record for a Waterford player), Mullane is also one of the best players ever never to win the Liam MacCarthy Cup. He is considered a legend of Waterford due to his passionate displays throughout his career.
