Buller and neighbours West Coast were the only remaining regions in New Zealand rugby never to have won a national championship trophy \u2014 until 2012. Buller had sighted the Lochore Cup when Westport hosted the 2010 \ufb01nal but Wairarapa Bush took the trophy home. There was no prize for second place despite Buller\u2019s narrow 15-9 loss. In 2012 Buller hosted the Lochore Cup final again after a most successful season. Hosting rights \u2018were assisted by South Canterbury being stripped of two championship points because of a breach of the eligibility regulations,<\/p>\n

During the round robin only Wanganui comfortably defeated Buller, the other losses being to North Otago and eventual Meads Cup winner East Coast. Memories of the 2010 \ufb01nal lost returned to several of the players, and coaches, when a semi-\ufb01nal against Poverty Bay was set to be played at Westport. The disappointment of two years; previous made the home side more determined to avoid a repeat. Buller raced away to a 31-03 halftime lead and Won 42-22.<\/p>\n

In the \ufb01nal South Canterbury were dominant during the \ufb01rst half, scoring two tries while Marty Banks kicked four penalties to keep the home side in the game. Near halftime Andrew Norton-Taylor scored under the posts and Buller trailed by one point. After the break, Pene Nabainivalu scored, and later Ilaisa Namua. For the remaining 20 minutes Buller defended its ll-point lead against South Canterbury\u2019s strong attacks. A try was conceded but the game was won 31-28. It was Buller\u2019s Finest Hour in championship rugby.<\/p>\n

For the coaches Craig Neil and Craig Scanlon the cup win was a \ufb01tting reward for six years guiding the team. Reward also to the players who had given many years\u2019 service to the small union including the centurions Luke Brownlee and Phil Beveridge. Nabainivalu was in outstanding form, he forming a dangerous attacking mid\ufb01eld partnership with Trael Joass. Teenager Andrew Norton-Taylor showed much promise on the wing and a versatile William Saukuru performed well in each of the four positions he was placed. Marty Banks, a former Canterbury B rep, set a new union record for points in a season. Andrew Stephens\u2019 consistent form again earned him Heartland selection.<\/p>\n

James Foster locked the scrum with Ben Coman and later Craig Moore. Coman led the side in the \ufb01nal games following the injury to captain Bevan Tetai. Coman was one of the standout performers of the championship and deserved his Heartland selection. Props Beveridge, Logan Mundy and Stephen Crackett formed a strong front row with hooker Ilaisa Namua. Matt Parata was a promising loose forward while veteran Luke Brownlee retains his place, his commitment and high tackle count being an inspiration to the younger players.<\/p>\n
