Bula and welcome to TEIVOVO Sports “Breakafast Bites” – a wrap of Pasifika sports highlights this beautiful Monday morning 20 June 2022 coming to you from the 180th meridian in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, Fiji. BIG Joe Cokanasiga scored for England, but it wasn’t enough as they were trashed by the Barbarians 52-21 at Twickenham this morning with Levani Botia at openside flanker and Virimi Vakatawa at Centre.  Ex-Wallaby lock Will Skelton etched his name in Babas history becoming the first Baba player to be red-carded. Eddie Jones names his England squad to travel to Australia for three tests in July, tomorrow. Brad Fittler has swung his axe and made 7 changes to his NSW Blues squad for their upcoming must-win ORIGIN II in Perth: Jake Trbojevic, Angus Crichton, Siosifa Talakai, Liam Martin, Victor Radley, Clint Gutherson and Jordan McLean are all in, while Reagan Campbell-Gillard, Ryan Matterson, Kotoni Staggs and Tariq Sims are all gone. Well at least Kotoni can play for Mate Ma Tonga Tonga against New Zealand and Tariq for the Fiji Bati against Papua New Guinea Kumuls. Remember the Super Rugby Pacific final on – never mind let’s not go there . . . Crusaders Head Coach Scott Robertson and Captain Scott Barrett got all the plaudits for the Crusaders' all-conquering win, but there’s another Scott who also deserves some credit – Crusaders Assistant Coach Scott Hansen.  Get this - he masterminded the Crusaders dismantling of the Blues in the one-sided final at Eden Park on Saturday night after studying the Blues for a month. So there he was dressed up like Blues legend Rupeni Caucau attending all the Blues team training, planning sessions and pre-final celebratory cocktails taking notes, studying and spying and no Blues noticed! Unbloody Bluelevieble! For TEIVOVO Sports – I’m Culden Kamea, Malo, vina’a and thank you!
