Kia ora, Talofa lava, Ma’lelei, Bula, Aloha and Welcome to Season 11 Episode 37 of Breakfast Bites, by TEIVOVOdigital.com – a wrap of Pasifika people’s sports news, on Tuesday morning 12 November 2024.
Happy Birthday Stuart Gow!
Coming to you with tons of hanisi from the 180th meridian, in the middle of the Blue continent, where it is cool 21 degrees Celsius at 5am this morning.
In Rugby Union: If you think that Joseph Suaalii was good in his Test rugby union debut at Twickenham, imagine if the NRL’s top players played a rugby union game against the Wallabies: Nathan Cleary, Jahrome Hughes, Kalyn Ponga, Jarome Luai, Isaah Yeo, Cameron Munster, Harry Grant, Tom Trbojevic, Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow, Stephen Crichton, Dylan Edwards, Tom Dearden, Mitchell Moses, James Tedesco, Matt Burton, Latrell Mitchell, Joseph Tapine, Payne Haas, Reece Walsh and Haumole Olakau’atu.
In Football: Pep Guardiola has suffered four consecutive losses for the first time in his managerial career as Manchester City’s dismal spell hit a new low with a late collapse in their 2-1 loss at Brighton.
With just 12 minutes left, Guardiola’s troubled side were clinging onto the lead given to them by Erling Haaland in the first half.
But they collapsed in the closing stages as Joao Pedro equalised before Matt O’Riley bagged Brighton’s winner seven minutes from full-time.
In the NBA: Viewership numbers for the 2024 NBA season have started slowly with double-digit declines for its nationally televised games through the first two weeks, driven by star player absences and competition from the NFL and the just-completed, MLB World Series.
Attention to the NBA’s lengthy regular-season has diminished over recent years, but the NBA is hoping the solution is the Emirates NBA Cup, the second run of their in-season tournament that starts on 12 November.
In Combat Sports: The Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul’s exhibition boxing match, will be streamed exclusively live on Netflix from the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on 15 November, from 1am GMT, which will be 1pm Fiji time on Saturday 16 November 2024.
It is the first time Netflix is screening a live fight and it is not a pay-per-view event, so Netflix subscribers can watch it free of charge worldwide.
Free from Netflix – now that’s a wrap sports fans!
