Talofa, Ma’lele’i, Bula and welcome to Season 05 Episode 05 of Breakfast Bites by TeivovoSports.com – a wrap of Pasifika Peoples sports on another beautiful blue sky Thursday morning 06 April 2023.Coming to you from paradise, on the 180th meridian in the middle of the Pacific Ocean!In rugby league: Wests Tigers have announced they will be redesigning their 2023 ANZAC Round commemorative jersey, after eagle-eyed fans spotted an unforgiveable blunder, pointing out that the soldiers were in fact American based on their uniforms and weaponry, and NOT Australian or Kiwi troops.This after the Tigers claimed to have consulted the Australian Army about the jersey, to which the Army later responded that it was all one big fat lie, and in fact no such consultation ever took place.So have had to ditch 500 jerseys at a cost of A$75,000.Oh boy you just can’t make this up!In other news, after his outstanding start to the 2023 NRL season, the Dolphins have boosted their forward depth by locking up former Centre, Connelly Lemuelu with a contract extension which will see him stay with the Dolphins until the end of 2025.The 24-year-old played 24 games for the Cowboys in three seasons since his debut in 2020 and has played five games for the Dolphins since switching to back row in 2023.In rugby union: The Singapore 7s kicks off on Saturday at 01:30pm Fiji time with Argentina-Ireland, and the final game kicks off at 11:33pm with Fiji-Spain. Play begins on finals day on Easter Sunday at 2:50pm with the ninth place quarter-finals and the gold medal final scheduled for 11:28pm.Fiji won the Singapore 7s 2022 and Samoa lost to the All Blacks 7s in the semifinal.In Boxing: Following the most brutal fight seen in Australia in 25 years, Kiwi brawler, Floyd Masson produced the fight of his life last Saturday night, to bash tough-as-nails Italian rival, Fabio Turchi from pillar to post, for a unanimous points decision to clinch the IBO Cruiserweight World title.After the 12-round slugfest both fighters left the battlefield - the Eatons Hill Hotel on Brisbane’s north side, in separate ambulances for the nearest hospital.In SportsBiz: Major League Baseball’s opening Day generated record viewership for MLB.TV according to SportsPro. The direct-to-fans streaming platform drew a record 172 million minutes watched across 15 MLB games last Thursday, up 42% from 121 million minutes last year. ESPN’s Sunday game broadcast averaged 1.3 million viewers — making it the most-watched sporting event on cable TV that night among the coveted 18-49 age demographic. In other Sports: The most coveted prize in golf, the green jacket, is up for grabs again in the 85th edition of the Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Course, Georgia, USA where the world’s best golfers will line up this weekend, featuring for the first time ever, six previous Masters Champions who defected to LIV Golf, the Saudi-backed cash-rich rival of the PGA Tour in: Phil Mickelson, Charles Schwartzel, Bubba Watson, Sergio Garcia, Patrick Reed and Dustin Johnson.In Football: ESPN is reporting that Lionel Messi is weighing up a move to Al Hilal Football Club in the Saudi Pro League, the Riyadh-based rivals of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr Football Club.The Saudi Club has reportedly sent Messi an offer of – wait for it - US$436Million a year.Ronaldo leads the Saudi league with 11 goals while Al Nassr sits second on the table, with Al Hilal seven points back in third.Geez that’s over a million US$ per day!For TEIVOVOsports.com I’m Culden Kamea - Mahalo, vinaka and thank you.
