Description

Talofa, Ma’lele’i, Bula and welcome to Season 05 Episode 19 of Breakfast Bites by TeivovoSports.com – a wrap of Pasifika Peoples sports on a somewhat cloudy Friday morning 21 April 2023.Coming to you from paradise, on the 180th meridian in the middle of the Pacific Ocean!In rugby union: The New Zealand Warriors have lured dual international and former skipper Roger Tuivasa-Sheck back to the Club on a three-year deal, beginning in 2024.The 29-year-old left the NRL mid-2021 to join Super Rugby side the Auckland Blues and made his All Blacks debut against Ireland in July, 2022.Smart move!Twelve Men’s and 12 Women’s teams are competing in the World Rugby 7s Challenger Series 2023 in Stellenbosch, South Africa over the next two weekends.The Challenger Series was introduced in 2020 to boost Rugby 7s development globally and provide a pathway for promotion to the HSBC World Rugby 7s Series.Papua New Guinea are competing in the Women’s competition and I just have to ask, where are our Tongan and Samoan rugby-playing sisters?In the Men’s Challenger Series, Germany headline Pool A with Tonga, Zimbabwe and Belgium.Chile take on Hong Kong China, Papua New Guinea and Italy in Pool B, while in Pool C, Uganda are joined by Korea, Jamaica and Brazil.The winner of the Men’s competition will enter the HSBC London 7s in May with a chance to achieve the coveted HSBC World Rugby 7s Series status in 2024. Tongan Captain, Sione Tupou said: “We’re very grateful to be here. Our preparation has been good. Tonga has never played in the World Series. So for us it’s a huge opportunity to open doors for the younger generation back at home.”Well said.In rugby league: The Panthers looked to have won it when Stephen Crichton bagged his hat-trick in the 70th minute, but on the back of another Latrell Mitchell master class, South Sydney scored twice in the dying stages to steal an incredible 20-18 win at Accor Stadium last night and snap a five-game losing streak against Penrith.So the Rabbitohs poo-pooed the Panthers as we tipped, tonight the Eels to boo boo the Broncos in Darwin, the Sharks to bing bong the Bulldogs, the Cowboys to king kong the Knights in Townsville, the Dolphins to tutu the Titans at Suncorp on Sunday, the Tigers to moo moo Manly, the Roosters to roo roo the Dragons and the Storm to woo woo the NZ Warriors at AAMI Park.In football: UEFA Champions League Quarterfinals yesterday: Bayern Munich 1-1 Man City and Inter Milan 3-3 Benfica and so the Semifinals on 09 May sees Real Madrid vs Manchester City, on 10 May AC Milan vs Inter Milan, and the second leg on 16 May Inter Milan vs AC Milan and 17 May Manchester City vs Real Madrid.In SportsBiz: Liberty Media sees Las Vegas as a great long-term bet for Formula 1 around the Las Vegas Grand Prix scheduled for November. The F1 owner has put down over US$500Million in its Vegas operations, namely a 300,000-square-foot building on a 39-acre plot of land which they purchased last year for US$240M.F1 is defying its own conventions to bring the race to Vegas: It will be the third US race on the calendar along with Miami and Austin, Texas at a time when it’s a rarity for any country to host more than one F1 race. It’s also holding the race on a Saturday night – its first such race in nearly 40 years.In boxing: The Gervonta Davis versus Ryan Garcia super fight in Vegas this weekend is happening mainly because combined, the gladiators have cultivated a galaxy of fans on social media over the years, with more than 14 million followers on Instagram alone.Networks and promoters be damned - they’re far too often the obstacle to making megafights, but Davis and Garcia ensured they wouldn’t be this time around by initiating the fight that will maximize their bottom lines — and setting an example in the process.And finally this odd bit of sports news: A Scottish ultra-marathon runner has been stripped of her third place finish at the 80Km Manchester to Liverpool race on 7 April after she took a car ride for 4km o
