Happy Armstice Day!
 
Coming to you with tons of hanisi from the 180th meridian, in the middle of the Blue continent, where it is cloudy and 23 degrees Celsius at 5am this morning.
 
In Rugby Union: Young flyhalf, Caleb Muntz put in a Man-of-the-Match performance for the Fiji Water Flying Fijians 24-19 win over Wales in Cardiff this morning, scoring a try alongside Josua Tuisova and adding four penalties and a conversion for a personal haul of 19 points.
 
The win came despite Fiji playing with a man down for 59 minutes after Semi Radradra was red carded midway through the first half for a tough call on a dangerous high tackle, chasing a bomb.
 
Go Fiji Go.
 
In other results: South Africa 32-15 Scotland and Tonga 15-25 Romania.
 
In Rugby League: Tongan supporters flooded CommBank Stadium, Parramatta in a sea of red to see their team produce a second upset in as many weeks following their epic win over New Zealand in Auckland.
 
The greatest fairy tale of 2024 almost produced a Disney ending with Tonga taking a shock early lead when Sione Katoa finished off some beautiful work on his inside by Isaiya Katoa.

But slick counter-attacking by the Kangaroos enabled them to establish a 20-4 halftime lead.

But no one told the Tongan fans or players that it was over, with back-rowers Haumole Olakau’atu and Eliese Katoa crossing to set up a grandstand finish.

Australia are the Pacific Champions 2024, but a big thank you Tonga for making international rugby league great again.
 
In Netball: Australia are Fast5 Champions for a third straight year, after coming from a staggering 15 goals down to beat New Zealand in the final in Christchurch yesterday.

The 34-30 win ensured the unbeaten Australians went back-to-back-to-back, but they didn’t have it all their own way in a thrilling decider.

In Football: Man U legend, Ruud Van Nistelrooy insists his coaching future at Manchester United ‘remains open’ and he was not treating his emotional send-off yesterday as goodbye, after his time as interim boss came to a close.

Van Nistelrooy rounded off his four-game spell in charge with a 3-0 win over Leicester City, taking him to three wins and a draw since stepping up after Erik10’s sacking.
 
The Dutchman received a standing ovation, as he made his way off the pitch and down the tunnel for what could be the final time.

In Combat Sports: Mike Tyson, 58, will return to the ring to face Jake Paul, 27, on Friday night in an exhibition boxing match in Arlington, Texas. 

Paul is in the world's Top 50 highest-paid athletes and will add US$39Million from fighting Mike Tyson . . . who is the man behind this circus?
