Gus played only one match in the 2009 Buce League, which was Blek's first ever match, a surprise win against SFBC. After that, Gus accepted a lucrative deal to captain a Buce team in the United States, and left Blek for the remainder of the season.
After the end of the USA's Winter League, Gus returned and helped captain Blek with Hamish Rogers through the 2009 Winter Buce League. He was a top scorer in the competition.
