Simon Culhane (born 10 March 1968 in Invercargill, New Zealand) is a rugby player who won 6 caps playing at fly-half for the New Zealand rugby union side (the All Blacks). He made his international test debut at the age of 27 on 4 June 1995 during the 1995 Rugby World Cup. The match, against Japan was won 145-17 and is the largest winning margin for an All Blacks side. Culhane amassed an impressive 45 points during his debut, a world record for first class test rugby that still stands today, slotting 20 of 21 conversion attempts and scoring a try. He lost his place in the starting line-up for the next match to first-choice Andrew Mehrtens. As such, he then went on to win just 5 more caps. He currently coaches Rugby Southland in the New Zealand National Provincial Championship. He also played for Southland in the Hawke Cup.
