Club career

Bule played for Koloale in both legs of the 2009 OFC Champions League Final against Auckland City FC on 25 April 2009 and 3 May 2009. Koloale lost 9–4 on aggregate.

Bule played six times for Koloale in the 2010–11 season, making his first appearance in the 2–1 loss to Lautoka F.C. on 23 October 2010. On 5 February 2011, he scored his first goal in the season. [1] [2]

After a two-year stint at Central Coast which saw Bule score a goal in the 2022 OFC Champions League in a group stage match against ABM Galaxy, Bule was signed by Real Kakamora in 2024, [3] and was quickly appointed team captain for his leadership and experience on a team mostly composed of young players. That season, Kakamora, who were unable to obtain a single point in the prior season, rose to worldwide prominence through the success of their unique Instagram account, putting Bule in the spotlight as he helped lead the side to an unprecedented third-place finish, the best in club history.

International career

Bule made his debut for the Solomon Islands on 27 July 2011 in a 0–0 draw with Vanuatu. [4] He was also called up to the Solomon Islands' 2011 Pacific Games squad in New Caledonia. [5] Bule played in the 7–0 win against Guam on 27 August 2011. [6] He went on to earn his third cap in the 4–0 win over American Samoa on 30 August 2011, scoring his team's second goal in the fourteenth minute. [7]
