Kia ora, Talofa, Ma’lelei, Bula, Aloha and Welcome to Season 10 Episode 27 of Breakfast Bites, by TEIVOVOdigital.com – a wrap of Pasifika people’s sports news, on Sunday morning 28 July 2024.
 
Coming to you with tons of hanisi from the 180th meridian, in the middle of the blue continent, where it is clear and 20 degrees Celsius at 5am.
 
In the Olympic Games Rugby 7s: Fiji scored first to take an early 7-0 lead, but it was to be their only points of the game!
 
The sell-out crowd played their part – booing the referee for any ruling against Le Bleus.
 
Halftime in the Paris Olympics Rugby 7s gold medal game was tied up France 7-7 Fiji.
 
The crowd goes nuts as their saviour, Antoinne Dupont comes on in the second half and immediately makes an impact, finishing off a crucial break, burning Jerry Tuwai down the sideline for France to score 14-7 Fiji.
 
The buffering in the Walesi service is shockingly poor – and in the blink of an eye, as scripted, France has won the first gold medal at their Paris Olympic Games 28-7.
 
Go Fiji Go – you did us proud boys!

In Rugby League: The Sea Eagles fell just short of one of the most remarkable comebacks of all time as the Roosters held on for a pulsating 34-30 win that will do little to silence their critics, who remain unconvinced that they can match it with the elite teams.
 
The Roosters desperately needed to bounce back after their poor showing in Melbourne last week where their record against the top sides was exposed, and they looked set to shut everyone up as they piled on four tries in the opening 20 minutes.

In SportsBiz: The day after the NBA rejected the media-rights matching effort from TNT Sports, the reckoning began for network parent company Warner Bros. Discovery.
 
Investors were quick to make their sentiments known about WBD losing its NBA rights, immediately driving the company’s shares down, with the stock closing at $7.99 per share, down 5.7% on Thursday, wiping out about US$1Billion in market value. 

And that’s a wrap peeps!
