Kia ora, Talofa, Ma’lelei, Bula, Aloha and Welcome to Season 09 Episode 73 of Breakfast Bites, by TEIVOVOdigital.com – a wrap of Pasifika people’s sports news, on a sunny and bright Wednesday morning 19 June 2024.
Coming to you with tons of hanisi from the 180th meridian, in the middle of the blue continent.
In Rugby Union: The big questions to be answered at Churchill Park in Lautoka when Australia takes on the Fiji Men’s 7s Team over four trial games this week: Will Michael Hooper and Mark Waqanitawase make the cut for the Aussies?
And same with Selestino Ravutaumada and Iosefo Masi for Fiji – will they be going to Paris?
In rugby league: The Dolphins welcome a mid-season recruit into their starting 17, with Wayne Bennett unleashing former Bronco star and another Tongan tough guy, Tevita Pangai Junior, who will play his first NRL game of the year at Suncorp against the Storm on Friday night.
Remember the Dolphins only signed the Tongan tough guy after he was rejected by Craig Bellamy, following a stint in boxing.
Meanwhile, the Parramatta Eels have trimmed down the list of candidates for Head Coach to two, with Jason Demetriou and ex-Wallabies Coach, Michael Cheika knocked out of the running.
The Daily Telegraph reporting that either Josh Hannay or Jason Ryles will be Parramatta’s next coach from 2025 after progressing through to the next round of interviews.
It appears that Trent Barrett, who is currently leading the side in an interim role, will also likely miss out.
In EURO 2024 yesterday: England 1-0 Serbia, Romania 3-0 Ukraine, Belgium 0-1 Slovakia and Austria 0-1 France.
In other games today: Turkey vs Georgia in Dortmund at 5pm GMT and Portugal vs Czech Republic in Leipzig at 8pm GMT.
In the NBA Finals: Sixteen years after the Boston Celtics won their 17th NBA Championship, they grabbed a record-breaking 18th cruising to a 106-88 win over the Dallas Mavericks yesterday, to claim the NBA Finals series 4-1.
With it, the Celtics left the Los Angeles Lakers behind on 17 NBA titles.
Superstar Jaylen Brown was named Finals MVP, with 21 points, eight rebounds and six assists, while Jayson Tatum heavily involved as a scorer and playmaker, putting up 31 points to go with 11 assists.
In T20 International Cricket: Estonian cricketer Sahil Chauhan has shattered the record for fastest century in T20 International Cricket, finishing on 144 not out in just 27 deliveries against Cyprus.
Chauhan smacked 18 sixes during his onslaught, also a record in T20 International Cricket, helping Estonia chase down the 192-run target with 42 deliveries to spare.
Chauhan also bettered Chris Gayle’s record for quickest hundred in men’s T20s, with the West Indies icon passing the milestone in 30 deliveries during an Indian Premier League game against the Pune Warriors in 2013.
In the WNBA: One of the most catty rivalries in sports has another chapter.
In the Indiana Fever vs Chicago Sky game on Sunday, Caitlin Clark drove to the basket and got whacked in the head by who else - Angel Reese.
After the Fever closed out a 91-83 win, in which Clark scored 23 points on 7-for-11 shooting, along with eight rebounds and nine assists, she was asked what was going through her mind when Reese was called for a flagrant foul.
“What’s going through my mind? I need to make these two free throws. That’s all I’m thinking about. It’s just part of basketball. It is what it is,” Clark said.
Reese — who recorded her sixth straight double-double with 11 points and 13 rebounds while adding five assists — did not think she did anything wrong.
“It’s a basketball play. I’m always going for the ball. Y’all are going to play that clip, what, 20 times before Monday,” Reese asked.
Ooh kitty, kitty cool it babe!
And that’s a wrap peeps!
