The former Knight and NSW Origin rugby league representative pleaded guilty in Newcastle Local Court on Wednesday morning to one charge of supplying a prohibited drug.
The prosecution withdrew three other counts.
Two charges of supplying cocaine and one count of supplying a trafficable quantity of a prohibited drug were dismissed.
Magistrate David Price granted a defence application for Mullen to be sentenced at Wollongong Local Court - given the former star halfback now lives in the Illawarra.
Mullen will be sentenced on February 26.
