Buller enjoyed one of its better seasons and only narrowly missed the semi-finals for the Meads Cup. An upset win over Wanganui was followed by excellent performances away at Ruatoria and Gisborne then victory at home over South Canterbury. Four wins in succession boosted interest in Westport and larger than usual crowds at Victoria Square was the result. Prior to the championship season Buller played two non-first-class fixtures, losing to Nelson Bays 45-17<\/strong> at Motueka then defeating Canterbury Maori 20-7<\/strong> at Reefton.<\/p>\n

The team\u2019s strength was its forward pack.The experienced frontrow of captain Clark Nelson, Glen Atkin and Gavin Briggs was never bettered. Craig Moore and Bradley Walters won their share of lineout ball, but it was the loose trio of Phil Rossiter, Luke Brownlee and Josaia Yalayala which was so effective in general play. Rossiter was the team\u2019s most outstanding individual, a thinker and great worker. Yalayala impressed with his high work-rate and was involved in many try scoring moves, a player who could gain higher honours.<\/p>\n

Behind the forwards Andrew Stephens and Nathan Thompson excelled, an effective combination on attack and strong defenders. The experienced Michael Mumm was in good form at second five-eighth and his loss, through injury, in the South Canterbury game was sorely felt, the backs not being as effective without him. Canterbury loan player Marcus Taylor scored four tries in the demolition of East Coast. Neither of the wings, Stu Neighbours and Paul Clarkson, registered a try but Neighbours proved a match winner with his goal-kicking. Fullback Matthew Bonisch continues to develop as a reliable player and keen to attack.<\/p>\n

Buller is fortunate to have a good relationship with Tasman union where Todd Blackadder was generous in supplying quality players to their smaller neighbour. Yalayalu could have been playing for the Tasman B team and Briggs was a popular squad member, his experience and encouragement being a major factor in the team\u2019s success, a grand motivator who provided much inspiration.<\/p>\n
