Fulton attended Westfields Sports High School and captained the S.G. Ball team to victory in the Grand Final in 2002 while playing for the Western Suburbs Magpies. He again tasted Grand Final success in 2005 when the Wests Tigers defeated the North Queensland Cowboys to win the club's first NRL premiership. This early success in his career was tempered by a serious shoulder injury in the opening game of the 2006 season, which sidelined him for the whole season.
