In rugby union – our rugby predictions for 2023: Team Fijiana to defend their Australian title. The Fijian Drua to win their first Super Rugby Australia title and following in the footsteps of Toa Samoa, the Flying Fijians and Manu Samoa to make the Rugby World Cup 2023 semifinals in France.
The All Blacks to lose Scott Razor Robertson as Head Coach to somewhere else.
Eddie Jones to pop up at the Rugby World Cup in France 2023 in a surprising move!
In rugby league – the Dolphins have so far missed out on the likes of Kalyn Ponga, Reece Walsh and Cameron Munster and are desperate to land a marquee man to show they mean business.
Roger Tuivasa-Sheck could be the ideal candidate to fill the Fullback and marquee man roles in one go.
Wayne Bennett and the Dolphins are also reportedly keen to make Toa Samoa star, Stephen Crichton their Fullback, but face stiff competition from the Panthers and the Bulldogs for his signature and may struggle to lure him away from his family based in Sydney.
In boxing – the WBO has moved very quickly to demand “a detailed medical explanation” from Jermell Charlo of his broken hand, within five days, or face the possibility of being stripped of his title, after his defence against Aussie challenger, Tim Tszyu in Las Vegas on 29 January was postponed indefinitely.
And did you know – that the NFL has media rights deals worth a total US$113Billion over 11 seasons? Well they do and with some of the biggest broadcasters in the world – CBS, NBC Disney, FOX, and Amazon.
That’s right Amazon has exclusive rights to stream “Thursday Night Football”— the first time a tech company has held exclusive NFL rights.
In football – fans at the FIFA World Cup in Qatar spent 39% more on in-stadium purchases than the 2018 World Cup in Russia, according to data from Visa — the tournament’s official payment provider.
Only Visa-branded cards were accepted for in-stadium purchases during the tournament across its eight stadiums in Qatar.
And even though their teams didn’t even make the final, fans from the US, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Mexico and the UK spent the mostmoney at the World Cup.
The iconic final between France and Argentina generated the most spending of any game.
What were they all buying if there was no alcohol on sale? Me thinks Coca-Cola to mix with the rum they all smuggled in?
