Breakfast Bites, by

00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:15,420
TeivovoSports.com – a wrap of
Pasifika people’s sports news,
4
00:00:15,420 --> 00:00:21,010
on a sunny & bright Monday
morning 08 January 2024.
5
00:00:21,010 --> 00:00:25,260
Coming to you with tons of
hanisi from the 180th meridian
6
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,309
in the middle of the Blue
Continent.
7
00:00:28,309 --> 00:00:32,330
In rugby union, the chance to
win a gold medal at home, has
8
00:00:32,340 --> 00:00:36,419
lured one of the best rugby
players in the world to sevens
9
00:00:36,430 --> 00:00:38,810
rugby for this year's Paris
Olympics.
10
00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:42,060
But you will not see any all
blacks following France star
11
00:00:42,150 --> 00:00:43,790
Antoine Dupont's lead.
12
00:00:44,470 --> 00:00:49,700
It's too hard and stacked with
risk in a massive boost for the
13
00:00:49,709 --> 00:00:53,009
event. Dupont, a finalist for
World Rugby Player of the year
14
00:00:53,020 --> 00:00:59,369
in 2023 has decided to have a
crack at sevens and will forego
15
00:00:59,380 --> 00:01:04,680
this year's Six Nations in an
attempt to win Olympic gold.
16
00:01:07,050 --> 00:01:11,480
It is a marketing dream for the
Paris Olympics as he is the
17
00:01:11,489 --> 00:01:15,790
biggest rugby star in France and
his presence alone has made the
18
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,800
hosts an instant contender for
gold.
19
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:24,300
In rugby league. The top NRL
stories from 2023. Nathan
20
00:01:24,309 --> 00:01:27,639
clearly Cleary's grand final
master class.
21
00:01:28,569 --> 00:01:32,500
The Broncos had one hand on the
2023 premiership trophy after
22
00:01:32,510 --> 00:01:37,129
Israel's second half hat trick
gave Brisbane a commanding 24 8
23
00:01:37,139 --> 00:01:41,430
lead with 17 minutes to go in
the NRL grand final.
24
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,949
However, Panthers halfback,
Nathan Cleary had other ideas
25
00:01:47,059 --> 00:01:53,709
and threw his team on his back
to lead an unbelievable recovery
26
00:01:54,730 --> 00:01:58,790
that months later still has the
NRL world scratching its head.
27
00:02:00,010 --> 00:02:04,440
Cleary set up two tries,
produced a superb 4020 then
28
00:02:04,449 --> 00:02:08,649
scored the match winning four
pointer with a dummy and go to
29
00:02:08,660 --> 00:02:15,300
clinch and unthinkable 2624
victory & the third straight win
30
00:02:16,059 --> 00:02:17,279
for the Mountain men.
31
00:02:18,100 --> 00:02:21,440
Kevin Walters and Adam Reynolds
were at a complete loss as to
32
00:02:21,449 --> 00:02:25,100
how their team let the game
slip. While even Ivan Cleary
33
00:02:25,110 --> 00:02:27,690
admitted halfway through the
second half that he doubted his
34
00:02:27,699 --> 00:02:28,759
team could come back.
35
00:02:29,789 --> 00:02:33,449
But Cleary was at the peak of
his powers

on his way to winning
36
00:02:33,460 --> 00:02:37,350
a second Clive Churchill medal &
showed why many believe he is
37
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,770
the best player in the game
38
00:02:40,179 --> 00:02:45,539
For the Broncos it will always
be the one that got away while
39
00:02:45,550 --> 00:02:49,639
Cleary's pure belief & will to
win combined with his supreme
40
00:02:49,649 --> 00:02:52,820
skills ensured he etched his
name into the grand final
41
00:02:52,830 --> 00:02:56,800
folklore in arguably the
greatest comeback ever in an NRL
42
00:02:56,809 --> 00:02:59,229
grand final.
43
00:02:59,229 --> 00:03:02,690

what you wish for."
72

Undefeated American Virgil Ortiz
Junior has called out Tim Tizo
73
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:04,010
for WBO World title fight with
his legendary promoter Oscar De
74
00:05:04,019 --> 00:05:06,559
La Hoya, suggesting he would
even be willing to make the

00:05:06,570 --> 00:05:08,630
fight in Australia.

time.
