Description

Ma’lelei, talofa, bula and Welcome to Season 05 Episode 42 of Breakfast Bites by TeivovoSports.com – a wrap of Pasifika people’s sports news on another cloudy, warm and bright Monday morning 15 May 2023.Coming to you with tons of hanisi from the 180th meridian, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. In rugby: The HSBC Toulouse 7s results overnight in the Women’s comp: The Black Ferns were simply too good again, winning 19-14 against USA to claim another Cup title.Team Fijiana lost to Ireland 10-5 and after beating Great Britain earlier in Pool play, they lost out in their 7th place playoff 17-22.Australian Women beat France 7-33 for Bronze and Japan upset Ireland 0-14 for 5th.The All Blacks 7s beat Argentina 19-24 to win the Toulouse 7s Men’s title, making it another Kiwi double! Fiji Men beat Spain 15-26 for 9th place and France beat Canada 12-28 for Bronze.Earlier Spain beat Samoa 5-28, Fiji 31-15 uruguay, Australia 21-19 South Africa and in the Cup semis Argentina 33-5 Canada and New Zealand 19-14 France.In Super Rugby Pacific yesterday: the Brumbies 48-32 Highlanders.In rugby league: Cronulla Sharks bounced back from their Magic Round humiliation by the Dolphins, holding off a fast-finishing Manly Sea Eagles to win 20-14 at Brookvale Oval yesterday.Kalyn Ponga steered the Knights to a 46-26 win over the Gold Coast Titans at McDonald Jones Stadium yesterday, scoring a try plus two try assists, four tackle busts and 116M run, in what was clearly his best game since returning from time off to deal with his concussion issues.Gold Coast Titans star, David Fifita was excellent in a losing side, continuing his stellar season, the Tongan enforcer’s length of the field try in the second half was one of the game’s highlights.Just a reminder everybody, the Rabbitohs are on top of the NRL ladder!In football: Ilkay Gundogan scored two brilliant goals and teed up Erling Haaland for another for Man City 3-0 at Everton as they moved four points clear atop the Premier League table with an 11th consecutive victory.With three games remaining, Pep G's treble-chasing side has 85 points and a game in hand on Arsenal, who suffered a 3-0 home drubbing to Brighton & Hove Albion.Guardiola crossed the Goodison Park pitch to the raucous City fans and held up two fingers to denote the number of wins he thinks is all they need to clinch the title.In the NBA: NBA insiders are speculating that Doc Rivers’ role as Head Coach could be in jeopardy if the Philadelphia 76s fail to secure a win in Game 7 of their NBA Eastern Conference semifinals against the Celtics in Boston today.This, after the 76ers took a 3-2 series lead and then failed to close the Celtics out at home in Game 6 last Thursday, losing 86-95.And so, Game 7 in Boston is a must-win game for Philly, to not only advance to a first Conference Finals since 2001, but for Rivers to er hopefully keep his job.His history of failing to close out multiple playoff series doesn’t help his case: Rivers holds a 6-9 record in Game 7s — carrying the unenviable distinction of having the most Game 7 losses of any Coach in NBA history.And finally, Rivers has never won a Game 7 on the road.Best of luck Doc.In boxing: Having failed in his previous two world title shots, Aussie boxer Jason Moloney won the WBO Bantamweight World title in a 114-114, 115-113, 116-112 majority decision victory over Philippine Vincent Astrolabio at Stockton Arena, California USA yesterday, despite suffering a broken hand in the third or fourth round.In SportsBiz: Five years ago, the US Supreme Court struck down the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 — the federal law prohibiting sports betting.Since then, 34 states plus Washington DC, have legalized sports betting in some form, with four more States joining with pending legislation.It’s led to a US$220Billion explosion in legal sports bets placed since 2018 — generating over US$3B in tax revenue for these States.With each new quarter, the sports betting industry raises
