    Kia ora, Talofa lava, Ma’lelei, Bula, Aloha and Welcome to Season 11 Episode 39 of Breakfast Bites, by TEIVOVOdigital.com – a wrap of Pasifika people’s sports news, on Friday morning 15 November 2024.

    Happy birthday Troy – husband of Clarissa.

    Coming to you with tons of hanisi from the 180th meridian, in the middle of the Blue continent, where it is crazy warm 24 degrees Celsius again at 5am this morning.

    In Rugby Union: Are you locked in for all the big rugby union Tests this weekend in Europe?

    So, our world famous tips are: Ireland to argiebargie Argentina, Scotland to slomo Portugal, South Africa to debrexit England, the New Zealand All Blacks to franjelico France, Fiji to frisco Spain, Romania to robocop Canada and Tonga to MAGA USA in France.

    In Rugby League: “I am surprised that they’re not trying to sign Cristiano Ronaldo and Tom Brady,” Peter V’landys said in response to a claim by former Rugby Australia boss, Hamish McLennan that Nathan Cleary and Payne Haas, plus a host of other NRL stars, were keen to make a code switch in May 2025.

    This, after Joseph Suaalii snared a three-year contract worth an eye-watering A$5Million to switch codes.

    “I would be more concerned if I was them, with their A$80M worth of debt that they have created, which puts the whole game in financial turmoil.”

    In Football: Harry Kane says he is disappointed by the high number of withdrawals from the England squad this week, insisting the national team must come first.

    Eight players withdrew from England’s initial 26-man squad for their Nations League game in Athens, including Declan Rice, Phil Foden, Bukayo Saka and Cole Palmer.

    The Euro 2024 runners-up head to Greece for Thursday’s must-win Nations League match before a Wembley meeting with Ireland on Sunday.

    In Sports Biz: While Disney reported US$22.6Billion in total revenue for its fiscal fourth quarter, up 6% from the comparable period a year ago and beating analyst projections.

    Operating income rose 23% to US$3.7B, boosted significantly by the company’s entertainment division.

    Their sports division, led by ESPN, had a flat revenue figure of US$3.9B, and operating income fell 5% to US$929Million, with higher programming and production costs related to college football cutting into earnings.

    On both a quarterly and annual basis, ESPN’s domestic operations remain profitable while its international activities are a drag on the balance sheet.

    ESPN+ subscriptions increased 3% to 25.6 million, restoring a growth pattern to the streaming platform.

    ESPN+ also posted its second straight quarter of profitability.

    In Combat Sports: Almost 20 years after his last professional fight, Iron Mike Tyson is returning to the ring in this Saturday’s hyped showdown against Jake Paul in an exhibition boxing match, featuring six other fights on the undercard from 1pm.

    Tyson and Paul are expected to walk out around 4pm Fiji time, which you can catch live and exclusive on Netflix at no extra charge.

    Let’s get ready to call 911 for an ambulance!

    And that’s a wrap Peeps!

    Kia ora, Talofa lava, Ma’lelei, Bula, Aloha and Welcome to Season 11 Episode 38 of Breakfast Bites, by TEIVOVOdigital.com – a wrap of Pasifika people’s sports news, on Thursday morning 14 November 2024.

    Coming to you with tons of hanisi from the 180th meridian, in the middle of the Blue continent, where it is crazy warm 24 degrees Celsius at 5am this morning.

    In Rugby Union: Are you locked in for all the big rugby union Tests this weekend in Europe: Ireland vs Argentina, Scotland vs Portugal, England vs South Africa, France vs New Zealand, Spain vs Fiji, Romania vs Canada and USA vs Tonga in France.

    In Rugby League: Former Fiji Bati and NRL halfback, Brandon Wakeham has had all drug charges levelled against him dropped.

    Wakeham was arrested in the carpark of Brookvale Oval in May and charged with taking part in the supply of prohibited drugs and participating in a criminal group.

    Now according to the SMH, all charges were dropped during a hearing at the Sydney Downing Centre Courts on Tuesday.

    “Throughout this process, Brandon has maintained his innocence and we fought for him with the same belief,” his lawyer said.

    “Today’s result, with the charges withdrawn and dismissed against him, is a vindication for Brandon who now seeks to rebuild his life, having endured a very difficult time.”

    The 25-year-old has played 40 NRL games at the Bulldogs and Tigers, plus some games for the Fiji Bati.

    In Football: “I feel ready for the new challenge. I’m not naive, I know that it’s going to be very, very different, very tough but I’m ready,” and with that, Ruben Amorim jetted to Britain from Portugal on Monday to begin his new mission – to save Manchester United.

    The former Sporting Lisbon boss is Man U’s sixth appointment since the end of Sir Alex Ferguson’s trophy-filled 27-year-reign in 2013.

    United are 13th in the Premier League table after a poor start to the season but are only four points off the top four.

    Amorim’s first match in charge will be away at Ipswich on 24 November, following the current international break.

    In Sports Biz: The latest baseball sensation out of Japan - Roki Sasaki is one of the most talented pitchers on the planet.

    He’s a 23-year-old who has dominated hitters in Japan for four years with a fastball touching 164Km per hour.

    He could wait two years and potentially sign a deal exceeding US$300Million like Yoshinobu Yamamoto did last year.

    Instead, he’s coming stateside now—where any team can sign him for peanuts, and get six years of discounted control.

    In Combat Sports: Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul’s exhibition boxing match on Saturday from 1pm will feature six other fights on the undercard:
    Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano –Super-lightweight
    Mario Barrios vs Abel Ramos – Welterweight
    Neeraj Goyat vs Whindersson Nunes – Super-middleweight
    Shadasia Green vs Melinda Watpool – Super-middleweight
    Lucas Bahdi vs Armando Casamonica – Super lightweight
    Bruce Carrington vs Dana Coolwell – Featherweight

    Some really looking names in that line up.

    They sound like friends of Jake Paul.

    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!
