The Wallabies have done the impossible!

The KOKO Show is back after one of the wildest Test matches we’ve ever seen, as the Wallabies take down the back-to-back World Champion Springboks in absolute chaos! The boys break down the madness, including the TMO PHONE DISASTER and an unbelievable final 10 minutes that saw Australia reduced to just 11 men against 15. Somehow, the Wallabies dug in, refused to break and produced one of the gutsiest finishes you’ll ever see. Aussie spirit at its finest — and our Santos Energy Where It Matters Moment of the Week.

We’re also joined by Wallabies and Western Force flyer Dylan Pietsch! Dylan chats about his journey, his footy, life at the Force and the speed, power and physicality he brings to Australian Rugby.

There’s plenty more Aussie rugby to celebrate, with the Wallaroos getting the job done against Scotland, while the boys wrap up all the Super Rugby AUS action and look ahead to a HUGE Western Force v Waratahs FINAL this weekend.

Ryan Lonergan takes home our Cape Mentelle Uncompromising Character of the Week before the lads pull out the crystal ball and make their WAY TOO EARLY Rugby World Cup Round of 16 predictions — all thanks to Rugby World Experiences.

GO ALL OUT!

Enjoy you beautiful KOKO-Nutters!

WALLABIES CAPTAIN HARRY WILSON joins The KOKO Show ahead of Australia’s massive showdown with the SPRINGBOKS in Perth!

With the Wallabies preparing to take on the best in the world, Harry takes us INSIDE WALLABIES CAMP to reveal how the squad is feeling, how they’re preparing for the Boks and what Australia needs to do to knock off the world champions on Sunday.

We also check in on the skipper himself — how he’s handling the demands of a huge international season, what it means to lead the Wallabies and whether the boys genuinely believe they can take down the Springboks in Perth.

PLUS, the boys break down the WALLAROOS’ thrilling close call against FRANCE and why another strong performance shows Australian women’s rugby is heading in the right direction ahead of a HOME RUGBY WORLD CUP in 2029.

Then… WHAT HAPPENED IN ROMA?!

The KOKO boys are back in the studio after a huge weekend at the SANTOS FESTIVAL OF RUGBY, where the WARATAHS DUSTED THE REDS, KOKO packed out the Club Hotel for a wild LIVE SHOW and the boys enjoyed everything Roma had to offer.

We also launch our brand-new segment — THE SANTOS ENERGY WHERE IT MATTERS MOMENT OF THE WEEK — celebrating the play, decision or turning point that delivered when it mattered most.

We wrap up all the SUPER RUGBY AUS action, tell a few questionable tales from the KOKO road trip and start counting down to the CAPE MENTELLE RUGBY LONG LUNCH on the 15TH OF OCTOBER!

HARRY WILSON. WALLABIES v SPRINGBOKS. WALLAROOS. SUPER RUGBY AUS. ROMA. AND PLENTY OF KOKO CHAOS.

ENJOY, YOU BEAUTIFUL KOKO-NUTTERS!

The KOKO Show is back for Episode 30 and this week it’s just the boys on the couch getting stuck into a massive week of rugby!

First up, the Springboks have officially wrapped up Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry, finishing the series 3-1 over the All Blacks after another huge showdown in Baltimore. With the Boks continuing to dominate world rugby, the boys ask the big question — are these Springboks the greatest team ever?

Then we turn our attention to the Wallabies, as the lads go through the newly announced squad and break down the big selections, who could make the difference and, most importantly… how the hell can the Wallabies beat the Springboks in two weeks?!

There’s plenty more Aussie footy to unpack, with the Wallaroos pushing the Red Roses in England, while Super Rugby Aus gets underway with big wins for the Western Force and Waratahs.

And with no guest to keep the boys under control, we finish things off with a game of ‘Who Is This Teammate?’ — putting Gits, Drew and Swoop’s knowledge of their former teammates to the ultimate test.

No guest. No filter. Plenty of footy and the usual amount of KOKO chaos.

Enjoy you beautiful KOKO-Nutters!

The KOKO Show is BACK after another massive weekend of international rugby!

The boys get stuck into the WALLABIES’ dramatic draw with ARGENTINA in Mendoza — where did Australia let it slip and what needs to change before they face the SPRINGBOKS in Perth? With CARTER GORDON sidelined through injury, the lads also dive deep into the big question facing Australian rugby — WHO WEARS THE WALLABIES NO.10 JERSEY?

Then it’s RUGBY’S GREATEST RIVALRY, as the SPRINGBOKS come from behind to beat the ALL BLACKS in an epic third Test and add another incredible chapter to this heavyweight rivalry. Moreover, the lads discuss in depth whether RGR has been a success on a global scale.

PLUS, we welcome one of the brightest young talents in Australian rugby — REDS YOUNG GUN TREYVON PRITCHARD! Treyvon chats about his rapid rise, life at the Reds and why he could be a huge part of the Wallabies’ future.

And finally… DADDY SWOOP IS GOING TO SURVIVOR! The boys celebrate Swoop being announced as a contestant on the newest season of AUSTRALIAN SURVIVOR — and naturally, they’ve got a few questions about how long he’ll last!

Another huge week of footy, carry-on and KOKO chaos. ENJOY YOU BEAUTIFUL KOKO-NUTTERS!

This week on The KOKO Show, the boys dive deep into the WALLABIES’ massive win over Argentina, making it FOUR WINS ON THE TROT! We break down where the Test was won and lost, the players who stood up and why the second match on the road in Argentina is always one of the toughest assignments in world rugby.

Then we head over to Cape Town to catch up with a slightly hungover All Blacks legend and Rugby World Cup hero STEPHEN ‘BEAVER’ DONALD! Beaver joins the boys to unpack the SPRINGBOKS’ win over the ALL BLACKS in Game Two of Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry, the planes flying frighteningly close to the stadium roof and the bizarre post-match coaches’ disagreement over exactly “WHO WAS WALKING AROUND?”

Plus, we put our great guest to the test with a brand-new game called ‘LEAVE IT TO BEAVER’, before tackling one of rugby’s most important debates — WHO ARE THE HOTTEST RUGBY PLAYERS OF ALL TIME?

And finally, the Cape Mentelle Uncompromising Character of the Week goes to none other than FRASER McREIGHT — Australia’s HEAVYWEIGHT RED — after another enormous performance in gold.

Wallabies winning, Beaver battling a hangover, coaches arguing and rugby’s hottest men being ranked. Just another week on The KOKO Show.

ENJOY YOU BEAUTIFUL KOKO-NUTTERS!

THE KOKO SHOW IS BACK and this week we’ve brought in some serious front-row firepower, with Springboks legend and two-time Rugby World Cup winner STEVEN KITSHOFF joining the show! The big red unit jumps on the couch with the boys to talk all things Springboks, scrums, World Cups and life after footy — plus, with one of rugby’s most famous redheads in the building, there was only one thing to do… THE GREAT KOKO REDHEAD QUIZ! Can Kitshoff prove that gingers really do know more about their own kind?

On the rugby front, the boys get stuck into another massive weekend of international footy, starting with the ALL BLACKS taking down the SPRINGBOKS in Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry. We break down where the Test was won and lost, the standout performances and what it means as these two heavyweight nations continue their epic battle for southern hemisphere supremacy.

Across the ditch, the BLACK FERNS got the better of the WALLAROOS, and the lads unpack where Australia fell short and what needs to change as the Wallaroos continue their push to close the gap on their Kiwi rivals.

Then we turn our attention to a HUGE challenge for the Wallabies with a FULL ARGENTINA v WALLABIES PREVIEW. We look at the key match-ups, players to watch, where the Wallabies can hurt Los Pumas and exactly what Australia needs to do to get the job done in Argentina.

Of course, it wouldn’t be KOKO without a little bit of chaos away from the rugby. The boys talk up the upcoming Cape Mentelle Long Lunch, where the wine flows, the stories get longer and the conversation inevitably heads somewhere it probably shouldn’t.

And finally, with Father’s Day just around the corner, Budgy Smuggler presents ‘THE YEAR OF THE TAH’ — our very special celebration of dads, Tahs and the magnificent men who proudly pull on a pair of smugglers.

So sit back, crack something cold and enjoy another massive episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons — The KOKO Show!

GET AROUND IT, KOKO-NUTTERS!

DADDY SWOOP IS HOME!

This week on The KOKO Show, we have a HUGE surprise for all our faithful KOKO-Nutters. You’ve been worried sick, you’ve been asking about his whereabouts and we can finally confirm that the great man has returned — DADDY SWOOP IS BACK ON THE COUCH!

With the DOGG back in the house, the boys get straight into the footy as it rained GOLD in Townsville, with the Wallabies putting Japan to the sword in an emphatic 56-17 victory.

The lads break down the tale of two halves up north, Les Kiss’ depth experiments and a dominant performance from the Aussie pack that had the forwards turning to the backs and saying, “Hey boys… HOLD OUR BEER!”

Plus, in a massive coup for the show, we welcome arguably the biggest and most beautiful debutant in Wallabies history — the ‘Millemium Man’ himself, MASSIMO DE LUTIIS!

Big Mass jumps into the hot seat to take us inside his dream Wallabies debut, reveal just how late the celebrations went after the match and he explains why his beautiful mother sends him off every week with FIVE ESKIES full of food. The big fella needs his fuel!

But ladies and gentlemen, that is certainly not all… In Other Rugby News, the boys unpack Michael Cheika’s homecoming to the Waratahs, we preview the Wallaroos’ massive showdown with the Black Ferns and finish things off with something a little sweeter as we taste-test Wallaroo Michaela Leonard’s baked goods from ‘Made by Mac’.

So sit back, relax, pour yourself a cuppa and grab your favourite biccy because this week on Kick Offs and Kick Ons, the boys are back together and we’re SPILLING SOME SERIOUS TEA!

It’s footy, food, Wallabies and a returning Daddy Swoop — what more could you bloody want?!

The Wallabies are WINNERS in the Les Kiss era!

This week on The KOKO Show, the boys get stuck into the Wallabies’ nail-biting win over the Brave Blossoms in Osaka. In tough conditions — and playing a man down for a quarter of the match — the Wallabies held off Eddie Jones’ Japanese side to hand Les Kiss a BIG W in his first game as Wallabies coach.

But we’re not just talking Aussie rugby! The lads break down the Springboks’ close call against Los Pumas, we take a look at the All Blacks’ tussle with the Stormers and we hand out the Cape Mentelle Uncompromising Character of the Week Award to none other than Les Kiss after his dream start in the top job.

And of course, it wouldn’t be Kick Offs and Kick Ons without an A-GRADE guest…

This week we head across the ditch and welcome All Blacks legend and Rugby World Cup winner ISRAEL DAGG!

With Izzy in the house, the boys break down New Zealand’s chances against the Springboks in the Greatest Rivalry Series, find out just how bloody hard it is to learn the Haka and reminisce about the time Izzy Dagg helped bring Matt Giteau’s glistening Test career to an end.

Wallabies’ wins. All Blacks v Springboks. World Cup stories. Haka chat. Izzy Dagg taking the piss out of Gits. What more could you want?

So sit back, relax and bask in the glorious glow of a Wallabies victory because it’s time for an all-new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons!

This week on the KOKO Show we are serving up a ploughman's platter of chunky chaps to bring in a new chapter of Australian Rugby under the one true hugger Mr Les Kiss. That is right! Up first, we were joined all the way from an onsen in Osaka by the man of the moment and hat-trick hero Mr Josh Chanam. With Joshy in tow the lads chat about all things Wallabies on tour, the feel of the team under Les and how the lads are preparing to demolish the Japanese on Saturday. Secondly, all the way from the chilly streets of Canberra one of the Wallabies’ wounded best Mr Tom Hooper joins the show to discuss his injury timeline, what it’s like playing footy in Exeter and who the hardest bastards are to play in World Rugby. 

Plus, the boys share their own thoughts about the impending Les Kiss takeover of Australian Rugby and what they believe this great man has to offer the game at a national level. We also get stuck into a little Rugby Round Up Segment where we dissect the Waratahs’ close loss to the Blues in the Super W Playoff Final last weekend. Finally, the boys play a little game called ‘What Said That?’, where they try and guess which of their Wallabies coaches said some outlandish quotes over the years.  So sit back, relax and lay a big ‘Kissy’ on a loved one. It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons, Lesssssssssss Gooooooooooo!

This week on the KOKO show we are joined by our favourite bodacious baddie, the king of the piggies and the loosest loose-head in the business Mr Angus Stephen Bell. With Belly riding up front the lads broke down how the Wallabies turned their international season around by folding the Italians like a couple of calzones. He also spoke on how the Wallabies farewelled Joe Schmidt in style and what this means for their confidence for the remainder of the year. Belly also talked about his time in Ulster pretending to be a number 10, how the Irish way of life is similar to Australia and how his time in the Emerald Isle has shaped his game for this international run. The boys also do a full Rugby Roundup Segment thanks to Active Ops, to put a juicy little bow on the midway point of the Nations Championship, plus the lads also preview the next big international fixtures that are coming up soon for the men in gold and we spend a little time to wax lyrical about Joe Schmidt’s time in charge of the Wallabies.

Plus, the lads hand hat-trick hero Josh Canham the Cape Mentelle ‘Uncompromising Character of the Week Award’ for his heroic efforts against the Italians, a performance so good that WADA had to drug test him at full-time. We also got stuck into a little reflection on the week that was in sport, with our fan favourite segment ‘How Good is Sport?’ brought to you by TCL. So sit back, relax and raise a glass to the great Joe Schmidt and Laurie Fisher for all they have done in Australian Rugby. With pride in our hearts and gratitude in our loins, it is now time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons. Les GOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by the ‘Golden Child’ of Australian Rugby, he is the man that made the frosted tip hip, a bloke that would shine with a magic jaw line, it is the one and only Mr James Rabs O’Connor. With James riding up front, the boys go deep inside the Wallabies’ dramatic loss to France at Suncorp, breaking down the issues surrounding the side and illuminating both the mental and physical shortcomings that are apparent on the field. Plus, with Active Ops providing us with up to date data we cover all the necessary stats from the weekend of International Rugby. The boys then move on to chat about James’ immediate playing future and how they believe his rugby IQ and IP would be invaluable for the Wallabies in the current climate. We also shed some light on the positives from the game with a little segment brought to you by Cape Mentelle Wineries called ‘The Uncompromising Character of the Week’, where we highlight the work of Tom Staniforth coming home to Australia but playing for France on home soil.

Finally, we close the show with another dose of ‘How Good is Sport’ brought to you by TCL and then we put Swoop back in the hot seat with a brand new look at ‘Swoop Will Sort It’. As the Wallabies’ hole gets a little deeper and Joe Schmidt’s tenure comes to an end, we call on all Australians to rally around the lads and get them over the line against the mozzarella massaging men of Italy. They need us right now! So sit back, relax and throw your frozen pizza in the oven. It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the TOP GUN boys are back together with Bernard ‘The Ice Man’ Foley flying tip to tip in an episode that can only be described as a footy fans wet dream. That is right, the Nard Dog is here to chat about his playing future hopefully at the Waratahs, pushing for a 2027 Rugby World Cup spot and discussing what he has left to offer Australian Rugby. Plus the lads get down and dirty with a full Nations Champs recap, all thanks to Active Ops - with Australia falling agonisingly short to Ireland, NZ’s close call with the French, South Africa sorting out the English and so much more. We also buoy the boys with a little segment brought to you by Cape Mentelle Wineries called ‘The Uncompromising Character of the Week’, where we unpack the guts and bravery shown by Harry Wilson and Ben Donaldson to step up and take their shot at glory.

Finally, we close the show with another dose of ‘How Good is Sport’ brought to you by TCL and then we put Swoop back in the fixer’s chair with a brand new look at ‘Swoop Will Sort It’. This week we are serving up wall to wall rugby, there is not a nook nor a cranny that isn't glazed by the game they play in heaven. So sit back, relax and pour yourself a chilled glass of Cape Mentelle wine, because you will need some uncompromising character to get through this all new ep of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by a man that makes you lick your lips and shake your hips, he is 140 clicks of grain fed gorgeousness, it is of course the Bordeaux Baddie himself Mr Ben Tameifuna. With big Ben riding shotgun the boys recap his second UBB European Championship, his post-win social media content and we play a little game of ‘Fact or Fiction - The Big Ben Edition’. Plus, we do a deep dive into the Super Rugby Final and discuss how the Hurricanes dismantled Ben’s beloved Chiefs in the biggest final defeat of all time.

With the international season merely 11 sleeps away the boys sink their teeth into the burning questions surrounding the most recent Joe Schmidt Wallabies Squad, they tackle the big bad All Blacks selections and then we give you all the pressing rugby news and scores from around the globe. Lastly we get super handy Swoop to sit down and nut out some listener issues with another helpful dose of ‘Swoop Will Sort It’. So sit back, relax and throw on your most fashionable beret because we are about to send your blood sugar soaring with an all new super-sized episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we are joined by one of the hardest men in All Blacks history. A blinding back-rower that made a living snapping necks, cashing cheques and hoisting silverware. It is of course the Manawatu Monster and still the middleweight champion of all of our hearts, it is the one and only Mr Chris Masoe. With Masi in tow the lads discuss the 2026 Hurricanes and how they will go about getting the choccies this weekend against the Chiefs in the Super Rugby Final. They also yarn about the best back-row Masi ever played with, their time in Toulon together and what it was like going from professional rugby to professional boxing. Plus, Goit has a little fun with Masi about how after 10 years of living in France, his French never got better and his English actually got worse.

In the second half of the show the boys break a box of Australian Rugby collectors cards all thanks to TGI, we also debut a new segment called ‘Swopp Will Sort It’ and the lads do a full run of all the footy action coming out of the Northern Hemisphere. Finally, the boys chat about their upcoming Wallabies House Live Show on the 4th of July and Drew goes on a true spiritual journey about his absolute love for sport. So sit back, relax, whip out a kebab and really enjoy the highlights of the mighty Socceroos feeding Turkiye at the FIFA World Cup. It is time now for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons. KOKO is life!

Plus, we get stuck into a plethora of other rugby news from around the globe, we do a score check from the global footy park and we also pick our ‘Way Too Early Wallabies’ starting XV. Finally, to lift the spirits amidst the Aussie Super Rugby demise the boys partake in a little regal festivity, as they play the infamous King’s Birthday Quiz. So sit back, relax, spark up a durrie and put on some Shane Warne highlights (the real king), it is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by our favourite Trans-Tasman talisman, a bloke that brings the vibes to Kiwi Rugby and used to go by the nickname Sops but now for obvious reasons now goes by Slops. It is the one and only Mr Lima Sopoaga. With Lima riding pillion on this hot throbbing hog of a podcast, the boys get stuck into the Super Rugby Playoff picture, they reminisce about the Highlanders win in 2015 and they talk about how the kiwis can find the motivation to win in absolutely anything. Plus, the lads have a little fun with a game we like to call ‘A Schooner Of…’ where they have to name a beverage that best suits a certain rugby union superstar.

Despite the fact that Swoop’s Temu Cupboard is still shut for a few more weeks the content mastermind was hard at work with a new segment called ‘The Great Pie Off’. In this segment the boys taste test three pies from Aus and NZ to crown the ultimate thick crust king. So sit back, relax and insert your electronic chess cheating device of choice. This show is about to blow Magnus Carlsen out of the bloody water. It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we have landed one of the ‘Big Dawgs’ of World Rugby. We are talking the inside centre to end all inside centres, despite only being the 5th best footy player in his family. That’s right, the KOKO Crew are joined by the all conquering, the all powerful and the always wear sunblock Mr Jordie Barrett. With Jordie in tow the lads get stuck into the Hurricanes’ dream season finishing top of the table, the push into the finals, the ethos of the team and who they wanna play at the pointy end, however, it isn’t code mode with Jordie on the line. We also delve into some funny moments Jordie has had off the pitch in a little segment we like to call ‘Please Explain’, whilst also once and for all settling the AUS v NZ pie debate.

Plus, for all our naughty Northern know-it-alls Swoop gets up on his Bordeaux soap box and really goes off about UBB’s back to back efforts in the European Champions Cup, much to Jordie’s dismay. Finally, we have noticed Drew feeling a little left out on the show so we remedy that with a full segment and a little quiz all about the big and beautiful Biv. So sit back, relax and get stuck into a crispy crusted meaty, whilst washing it down with a brand new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we have landed one of the biggest names in the world of rugby. We are talking about hot bloody property! This bloke is a 6 foot 3 - 105kg piece of Temora forged titanium, a consistent threat under the high ball and a fella that is doing his best to make the 70’s pornstar chin beard a thing in 2026. That is right we are joined by the Western Force enforcer Mr Zac Lomax. With ‘Zac Attack’ in tow the lads chat about his transition from league to union, the cultural differences between the two codes and he sheds some light on the 2026 NSW State of Origin team selection. Furthermore, the boys delve deep into Zac’s acclamation process in Perth with the Force and they speak about the biggest league fan boys within the footy club. Plus, we play a little game of ‘Footy,footy or Footy’ to unpack some of the lesser known off-field controversies from the three football codes over the years.

Finally, we of course chat about all the action from Round 14 of the Super Rugby, we preview all the juicy clashes in the final two weeks of the season with knockout implications and lastly we pick our Earth XV to take on the Mars XV in the inaugural intergalactic showdown. So sit back, relax and let the ‘Hot as fuck boi’ energy of Zac Lomax wash over you like a session at one of those fancy Japanese head spas. It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we were left to our own devices to wander this expansive podcasting landscape in search of a couple of fart gags, cheap laughs and a little bit of footy. Without a guest to be the wind beneath our little wings, the lads found another gear that they didn't know they had. The boys decided in week 13 to throw Schmidt at the wall to see what would stick and boy did we tackle all the big stuff like the benefits of hybrid rugby players, The ANZAC Test and whether Australia or NZ make the best meat pies. Plus, we dove into a deep rabbit hole to cover the full slate of games in round thirteen of the Super Rugby, as well as a little preview of the European Champions Cup between Bordeaux and Leinster coming up in a few weeks time.

Moreover, the boys indulged in a little segment we call ‘The Ditch Debate’, unpacking all the great disagreements between the island nations of Australia and New Zealand. That is right, this little podcast has put to bed the once and for all the fates of such things as Brad Thorn, Phar Lap, the ANZAC biccy and the Flat White coffees. You are welcome! So sit back, relax and brew yourself a cup of joe because this episode has just popped a spicy cube and is all systems go. It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by Australian Rugby’s version of ‘Good Will Hunting’. This bloke is ‘wicked smart’, with two degrees from Cambridge University, a passion for art and his own clothing line, he really makes the rest of us feel like shit. So please put your hands together for everyone’s favourite neanderthal turned nerd, Mr Angus Scott-Young. With Gussy in tow the lads delve into the tough times he had in pre-season, the form he is now showcasing for the Waratahs and what it is really like to be rugby’s most eligible bachelor. Plus, the lads get their juices flowing with a little game centered around Philosophy, they play another round of teammate tinder and we get stuck into how the Waratahs can still make the finals.

Finally, the boys get a little hot under the saddle blanket at the prospect of an ANZAC Day Bledisloe match up, we cover all the Super Round from round 12 and finish the show with what Angus Scott-Young would cook for Goit on a first date. So sit back, relax and undo the top button on those jeans. It is well and truly muffin top time, with an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are giving you a little taste of double trouble. That is right, we are joined by a couple of country Canberians, one little and one big, one loud and one quiet, but they both have the hots for Megan Fox. We are of course talking about the ACT’s favourite duo, Ryan and Lachlan the Lonergan Brothers. With this genetically opposing duo in tow we chat about the Brumbies season so far, what their relationships are like with Stephen Larkham and we play a little game called Bonded Bros, to see how close they really are. However, it is not all fun and games as we dive into week 11 of the Super rugby, we talk about the Wallaroos’ loss to the USA and we get really bloody excited about heading across the ditch to Super Round Ōtautahi in Christchurch.

Plus, we celebrate all things brotherly love with a few little videos from all the boys’ fraternal friends and Swoop serves up a stinky Temu Cupboard that you will never unsee. So sit back, relax and hug your big burly brother. This ep is about to hit you right in the feels. It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show your prayers have been answered! You have begged and pleaded for this man to return and KOKO has delivered. Coming in and running a juicy unders line from the outside channel is a man that goes by many names and has just as many different personalities. He has been called Snorkatron, Snorklebeanie, Captain Insano and of course the Porn Master. This Linfield legend lives off a steady diet of reminiscing about his 2003 SF intercept, making the tech world his bitch and forcing people to tell him that his lisp even as an adult is still really cute. So please put your hands together for Stirling Austin Mortlock! With Stirlo in tow the lads get down to business throwing questions at the Oracle in a segment we call ‘Snork Talk’, they chat about the current Wallabies set up and they shine a light on what actually happened when Morty called a Code Red on Swoop. Plus, we chat about round 9 of the Superb Rugby and we play a new little game called ‘Green and Goldylocks’.

Finally, we reintroduce old friend NordVPN back on the show as a sponsor, as well as the lads get giddy about the news that they are heading to Super Round in Christchurch in only a couple of weeks. Plus, we let Swoop run a muck inside his Temu cupboard and boy, let's just say he is giving main character vibes. So sit back, relax and let the innate beauty of Snorkatron fill your every orifice, it has been worth the wait. It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we take a philanthropic approach to talking absolute garbage and sprinkling our chaos with just the right amount of rugby. Although we didn't give you a guest this week, we make up for it ten fold with a sublime wrap up of all the rugby that took place in the Pacific, including the Tahs big upset of the in form ACT Shetland Ponies and how the Canes just keep rolling. Plus, we have a little mental health check-in on all the lads, we belatedly celebrate the births of Drew and Swoop and we play a cheeky little game of Never have I ever. 

We are well aware this show is simply the 50 minutes attached to the segment that is sweeping the nation, so without fail we serve up a truly centered and holistic version of ‘What’s in Swoop’s Temu Cupboard’. So sit back, relax and let the inane chatter of four has-beens fill the void in your life that has been vacant for so long. Here at KOKO we want to wish you all a happy and safe Easter and may the bunny be bad for your waistlines. It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are joined live in the studio by our favourite ‘KOKO Confidant’ and Ireland Rugby’s answer for the weird uncle at a family BBQ, it is the one and only Mr Mack Daddy Hansen. With Mack in the studio and wearing pants for the first time the lads get down to business talking about his current injury, the Irish Six Nations campaign, what he is doing back in Aus and his budding relationship with Andy Farrell. This episode is wall to wall laughs as Mack and the boys go for long walks down memory lane, shoot the shit about cracking career moments and then they finish with a little swiping session in a game we like to call ‘Teammate Tinder’. 

Plus, we knock the froth off a couple of cold ones and give you a full wrap of the Superb Rugby, giving Slips his flowers for conquering game 203 and most importantly we go deep on all the action from across the weekend in the Pacific. Lastly but certainly not the ‘leastly’, Swoop comes in real hot from a forage around his Temu Cupboard with a few items that will leave you hairless and shocked to your core. So sit back, relax and let the majestic nature of Mack Hansen fill your every nook and cranny, this fella is one of a kind and he stars in the all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by the man that is about to sit alone atop the mountain as the most capped Super Rugby player ever. That is right this rag tag show has once again landed a white whale and the game of rugby’s ‘Mr Right Now’, James ‘Styvo’ Slipper. This coming weekend slips moves to 203 Super Rugby games and takes out the title, so on the show he humbly talks about all the records he holds, his imminent playing future and he defends some funny stories that we got from his wife Kara. This bloke has changed the game of rugby in Australia for the better and this week on KOKO we give this big backy bastard his flowers and shower him with some much deserved adoration. Plus, we tackle all the action from the Superb Rugby and we proudly crown France the Champions of the Guinness Six Nations, after an ‘all-time’ after the siren execution of those English lads.

However, this week isn't all about the RA RA - we take some time to talk about our weekend activities, we discuss the best proposal stories, we test the boys French speaking skills and of course we dumpster dive right back into Swoop’s Temu cupboard. So sit back, relax and take and intravenous dose of some fucking C’est La Vie. It is time to say “Such Is Life” with an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are foraging around the world of rugby as lone rangers lost in a wilderness of psychedelic southern footy and naturally naughty northern Internationals. That is right, we are serving up an extra sloppy no guest nonsense for you, allowing our little island of misfit degenerates to spread their wings and do what they do best, talk absolute rubbish and little bit of rugby. 

First up, we get stuck right into all the action of Super Rugby from the weekend that saw the Reds sneak home against the unbeaten Brumbies, the Blues castrate the Crusaders and the Canes show the Tahs who is daddy. Just to name a few, plus we get right into the nitty gritty with the Guinness Six Nations, with Ireland downing the Dragons, the English getting pantsed by the panettone producing Italians and the Scots telling the French where they can escargot! Plus, we break down all the magical machinations heading into the final week of games as the best comp in the world (so they say) goes down to the wire. 

Finally, the lads have a little fun around fire as they pick out some famous rugby appendages, they hand out some ‘Re-KOKO-mendations’ for the fans and of course we finish with our very own ‘Titan of Temu’. So sit back, relax and get out your night vision goggles, KOKO is about to go full stealth. It is time for an all new Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the show we are joined by the people’s champ and undisputed fan favourite of ye KOKO faithful. He is a man with many masks and some of them wear mouth tape, he speaks his mind and we all know that can be a very interesting place to say the least, please welcome the one and only Mr Carlo Tizzano. With Carlo on the flank the lads get stuck into the Force’s start to the 2026 season, his wild journey throughout the Lions Tour and how he is currently monetizing his unborn child. Then we finish off our little catch up with our neuro know-it-all by playing a very game of True or False where we unpack the trials and tribulations faced by Carlo being the only Italian known to man that is allergic to eggplant.

Plus, we have a deep dive into the week that was in Superb Rugby as we take a look around the grounds, illuminating how the Aussies’ had a weekend to remember in Round 3. To finish our footy-fueled feast we head north to preview a mouth watering round four of the Guinness Six Nations, wetting your whistles with the likes of Ireland v Wales, Italy v England and the big one at Murrayfield Scotland v France. So sit back, relax and light up a fat fucking stogie this episode of KIck Off and Kick Ons will blow smoke rings around the rugby world.

This week on the KOKO Show we got down and dirty with the buff, broad and beautiful captain of the NSW Waratahs Mr Matt Philip. With Matt riding comfortably in our side-car of craziness, the lads chat about the Tahs hot start to 2026, his return home to skipper his childhood team and lastly we play a little game of TRUE of FALSE the Matt Philip edition. Plus, the boys get hot and bothered about round two of the Superb Rugby, talking all things oval ball in the Pacific, as well as, a little trip up North to chat Six Nations footy, focussing heavily on French flare and English despair. 

Furthermore, Drew this week has been enamoured about the plight of the Japanese monkey Punch and his hardships he has faced after being disowned and bullied in captivity. Thus, we have launched a new segment where the boys illuminate something in their lives that they just can’t let go of, all whilst holding ‘Hope’ the orangutan of comfort. Lastly but certainly not the least, we are back with a couple of juicy segments to round out the ep, Swoop adds a few more items to his Temu cupboard and the lads play a little game called ‘Guess that Salad’. So sit back, relax and think about how shit England is at rugby. If that can’t make you smile then you must be dead inside, but for now it is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by a young gun of Australian Rugby, he is a Sydney 6, Perth 10 and Canberra 11, so please put your mitts together for Mr Charlie Cale. With big Chedsy in tow the lads grill him on the inner workings of the Brumbies’ shower schedule, his nickname and the powerful start in round one of the season. We tackle the light and shade of what it is like being so handsome in Super Rugby and what it is like to forcibly consume lots of Greek salad. 

Plus, we have an in depth look at the results from the first week of the Superb Rugby season, breaking down the two big Aussie derbies, as well as the other games from across a wonderful weekend in the Pacific. Moreover, the feast of footy did not stop here as we headed up to our NHLs to break down Scotland’s big win over England, Ireland holding on against the Italian and the French putting the Welsh on toast. Plus, the lads try a few delicacies from our Northern neighbours and Swoop gives the guys some tangy TEMU treats. So sit back, relax and bathe in the beauty that is rugby from all four corners of the globe. Let us the KOKO Show glaze you with all our rugby goodness in an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show the lads are over in the Golden West all thanks to Tourism Western Australia, sampling everything that Perth has to offer from its natural beauty, to the food and all its groundbreaking entertainment. In this episode the boys glowingly recount their time at Rottnest Island, their dinner and tour at Gage Roads Brewery, climbing Optus Stadium and all the action from the HSBC SVNS at HBF Park. Plus, the fellas do a full rugby round up as they preview week one of the Super Rugby Pacific with their tips, tricks and everything in between, as well as a full recap of round one in the Guinness Six Nations for all our NHL’s.

In the Second half of the episode brought to you by HSBC we are joined by two legitimate Aussie greats Alicia Lucas and Michael Hooper to talk all things HSBC, SVNS and the Global Rugby Player Foundation. With our two red polo clad legends in tow the KOKO show takes a turn as we delve into the world of life after rugby, Swoop’s Temu addiction and just how excited everyone is about the 2027 Rugby World Cup. 

So buckle up your chin straps and remember to slip, slop, slap, slurp and slide; this episode is an absolute scorcher in the wild wild west. It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.  

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We are back for our first episode of the year and there is no better place to launch our new season than from the 2027 Rugby World Cup Schedule Reveal on the beautiful shores of Sydney Harbour. With the formalities all done and dusted, the games all announced and the William Webb Ellis trophy doing its thing around Australia the lads got to sit down with World Rugby Chair and former Wallaby Brett Robinson for a candid chat about the upcoming tournament. 

The boys press Brett on his must watch games for the World Cup, the teams that could shock the competition and what he expects from the opening match between the Wallabies and Hong Kong China in Perth. With the World Cup just around the corner in 2027 it is fair to say that rugby hysteria is at fever pitch down under and KOKO can't wait for it to roll around. Plus, the lads get stuck into a little ‘Other Rugby News’ as they chat about Rock Elsom’s Noosa spotting, Razor getting sacked by the All Blacks and the teammate scuffle at the Waratahs. Lastly, the KOKO crew pick their Six Nations teams for 2026, as well as a full slate of tips for round one this weekend. So fear not our weary faithful, the KOKO has returned and we are ready to make 2026 bigger and better than ever. It’s time for season three of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

As Andrea Bocelli once said “it’s time to say goodbye” to 2025 and gear up for a very merry silly season filled with rosé, prawns and a little touch of gout. This year for the KOKO show has been an absolute belter, we opened a new stadium in Hong Kong, we welcomed the British and Irish Lions down under and we delivered 48 rib tickling episodes to the people. This week we are rolling out the OG crew one last time to talk about the slate of international games that happened over the weekend, including the French smash up of the Wallabies, the Boks bouncing Ireland, the AB’s getting it done over Wales and England sneaking past the Argentinians. In what has been a topsy turvy year for rugby in Australia we saw it fit to finish the season with a little health check of the Wallabies, to see if McDreamy, McSteamy and McPeggy can still feel a pulse. With all the footy now in the rear vision mirror that lads decided to reflect on the year that was by presenting to you our loyal fans the second annual screening of the ‘KOKO Awards’ - recognising excellence in the fields of footy, fame and fun stuff. Plus, we are the gift that keeps on giving, as you know we have been shredding for summer all thanks to our partnership with WHOOP and today is the day for our grand reveal. Although not all of us hit our targets (or none of us) there is a glorious mid-show medley of man meat that simply can’t be missed. So, before we sign off one final time for 2025, all of us here at KOKO would love to thank you for your loyal and unwavering support of our silly little show. Please keep fighting the good fight, being kind to one another and please keep your eye on Swoop in the wild. It is time for the season finale of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we are joined in studio by a follically fabulous fly-half, he is a bronzed bombshell from Bondi who should probably be on tour with the Wallabies right now, but what the hell do we know! It is of course the one and only Mr Ben Donaldson. With Benny Boy riding shotgun the lads get candid with their concerns, as they dissect the Wallabies’ record breaking loss to a Mack Hansen powered Irish side in Dublin. The loss to Ireland is one thing for the Wallabies, but the lads appeared to be more shocked by the manner and style in which the Aussies got annihilated in the Emerald Isle. The boys get stuck into a road map of why the Wallabies find themselves in this situation and then they propose some possible ways in which we can right this ship, post the Joe Schmidt era. However, it is not all doom and gloom on the KOKO show as we highlight some of the other games from over the weekend, results that saw England beat the All Blacks in style, Scotland blow a big lead against Argentina and the Springboks beat Italy with only 14 men, AGAIN! As the international year comes to a close, we round the bend with only one week remaining in the Spring Tour and for the Wallabies it is all about leaving a mark against France, drawing a line in the sand that says “the slide stops here”. The KOKO Crew gives you all their predictions heading into round four of the tour, airing a few spicy upsets in the process and telling you who are the dead set locks. To finish the show we step away from the privately educated world of these ra ra raggamuffins to answer a listener question that shows a more human side to the lads - “what is your guilty pleasure no one knows about?’ - let’s just say the answers will knock your cashmere socks off. So sit back, relax, draw yourself a nice long bath and eat a tub of crunchy peanut butter with a spoon. This all new episode of Kick Offs and Kicks Ons is one hell of a therapy session!

This week on The KOKO Show the lads were a little down in the dumps and we decided that we wouldn't subject a special guest to our somber footy fuelled pizza-less pity party. Thus, we went for a no guest nonsense episode in the hope that with each other's support, love and no mention of Italian cuisine, we might start to make some sense of the Azurri’s shocking defeat over the Wallabies in Udine. The boys in this ep untie the bondage ropes, unfurl the main-sail and shoot from the hip as they search for answers surrounding the apparent regression of Australian rugby post their historical win over the Boks in South Africa. Questions are raised and theories are presented as to why our glorious gold jersey is dipping back into bad habits and playing an inaccurate brand of footy that screams fatigue and self-doubt. However, KOKO isn't just a one stop shop for doom and gloom, as we touch on all the other results from week two of the Spring Tour, matches that saw the Boks bounce the Frogs, the English defeat Fiji, the Pumas pounce on the Welsh and the All Blacks thumb their noses to the thistles. Plus, we take a look forward to week 3 of the tour, previewing and predicting that some teams (the All Blacks) will continue their roll and where others can bounce back from the depths of defeat (the Wallabies). Finally, the lads really lighten the mood of the show by answering a listener's question to take their minds off the on field action and boy does it ruffle a couple of feathers. So sit back, relax and boycott your local Italian businesses, it is very clear that they are doing better than advertised! Alorra ladies and gentlemen, it is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the lads are left to pick up the pieces after watching the Wallabies get put to the sword by a clinical English side over the Weekend. As Australians, there are a few things in life that can completely ruin your day: an increase in petrol prices, a shit coffee, tall poppies and losing to England in absolutely anything. So, being joined on the pod by one of England’s favourite sons Ugo Monye, made the licking of wounds so much harder for the lads as they had to navigate all the salt he was rubbing into them. With Ugo in tow and chipper as hell we broke down the English tidy up at Twickenham, illuminating where the Poms were perfect and why the Aussies couldn't fire a single shot. Ugo also gave us the low down on the English public’s current feelings about their rugby team and who they absolutely hate losing to on the world stage. Plus, we ran our collective footballing IQ’s across all the other international matches that happened over the weekend, results that saw South Africa jump Japan, Scotland make light work of the USA and the All Blacks pull apart the Irish. Finally, the KOKO crew look forward to next weekend as the Wallabies shape up to take on the Italians in Udine, whilst also previewing all the other big international matches on the card. So, to all my fellow Australians, lift up your chins, raise up your voices and say something mean to your local English import. It is time to forget about last weekend’s result, move on to next week’s match and enjoy the soothing sounds of an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO show we bring it back to our roots, delivering to you a no guest nonsense pod that is packed full of smack talk, poking fun at each other's insecurities and butt load of code. To start off the lads unpack the Wallabies’ close call in Tokyo, as Eddie’s Brave Blossoms put up one hell of a fight to try and claim their first ever ‘dub’ against the might of the green and gold. However, our golden gladiators battled the elements and some sloppy execution to claim the win and our panel of pricks picked it apart to identify some work-ons before we take on the might of England. Ladies and gentlemen spring has sprung and autumn has autumned, depending on where you live, but one thing is for certain the world over its time for some tangy touring. With the Wallabies touching down in the Motherland ready to make jellied eels out of these pommy princes, the KOKO lads have put together a full ‘Spring Tour Set Up’, previewing this week's tussle at Twickenham, as well as all the other international clashes this weekend. With hemispheric denomination at stake, emotions will run high as KOKO gets well and truly behind the South to ride these suckers home and prove which semi-circle is the best at playing footy. So get jacked, don your nation's garb and ready your noble steed, because this shit is about to get real up in here and The KOKO Show is a one stop shop for all your Spring Tour silliness. It’s time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we recorded a little earlier to ensure we had time to say bon voyage to Drew and Gits before they turned left on QF 1 for a week of “work” / debauchery in the City of Love, Paris. However, before these two departed on their baguette beating adventure, we were joined by the third most capped rugby player of all time, a man that has an upper body like a Canadian Grizzly and legs like Margo Robbie from the Barbie movie, it is of course the Aussie Rugby GOAT Mr James Slipper. In this ep the lads put Slips on the hot seat, delving deep into his 151 cap career, revealing his lung busting pre-game ritual and they show him some love for what has been one of the great slogs of all time. Plus, the boys give him some sage words of advice on what not to do in retirement as this beautiful backy bastard sails seamlessly into his next chapter of life.

Additionally ye KOKO faithful, we give you all the action from the Aussie A demolition job of the Japan XV in Osaka, we cover a plethora of exciting rugby news and lastly, we have another little crack at convincing you that we are actually trying to lose weight in our KOKO fitness challenge, in partnership with Whoop. All this mediocre madness and not a whole more in this week’s brand new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

his week on The KOKO Show we celebrate our first landmark achievement as a wannabe podcast. In what has been a topsy turvy 22 months, we are now part of the illustrious 100K club and it is all thanks to you the fans that we are fortunate enough to roll this shit out each week and call it a job. So, thank you and please keep supporting us on this journey! To help us celebrate this lofty showbiz achievement we are joined in the studio by one of the best young guns in Australian Rugby, he is the starting flyhalf of our resurgent Wallabies and without question the shows favourite courageous carrot top, it is of course, the one and only Tane Edmed. Merely hours after learning that he would be travelling to Japan and Europe with the Wallabies on the Spring Tour, Tane sat down with the lads to discuss his career thus far, what it is like getting lit up by Joe Schmidt and he explained the mindset of the group as they head off for what will be a cracking end of year tour. It is fair to say that this young firebrand is not just impressive on the pitch but his attitude, work ethic and innate leadership are qualities of a young rugby player that we should be proud to see don the green and gold. Plus, as a fellow Whoop wearer, Tane lets the lads in on a few trade secrets about the data you want to see and the numbers we should try to avoid as we continue to embark on our journey towards fitness immortality all thanks to our dear friends at Whoop.

So sit back, relax and let the future of Australian Rugby get handsy with your soul, because this redheaded renegade will put weekly reiki and a rubdown in the rear vision mirror for good. Now, for another spoon full of sugar to make this week go down a treat, it is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show the whole gang is finally back together, Drew survived Perth, Goit is tucked away in Canberra and Swoop is done and dusted with his gruelling conference schedule. Plus, the lads are joined this week by the recently retired bow legged bad boy from Scone and one of the greatest Wallabies to ever lace them up, it is of course Mr Nic White. With Whitey in the wings the boys dissect the final round of the RC that saw the mighty Wallabies go down to the AB’s for the 11th time on the trot and the brave Boks claim a nail-bitting win over Los Pumas in London to claim their second title in as many years. In summation, this year’s RC will go down as one of the most competitive of all time and despite the stylish South Africans prevailing as the winners, all four sides will head into their spring tours buoyed with the knowledge they can beat anyone on their day. With the rugby on home soil all wrapped up for 2025, the lads turned their attention to Nic White’s career, giving the little maestro his flowers in celebration of everything he has done for rugby in Australia and they discuss what his plans are for the not too distant future. 

Finally, we finish the episode having a little look at the Waratahs’ big win over the Western Force in the Super Rugby AUS final, we have a deep dive into the world of R360 and to wrap it all up we share our fitness challenge progress as the silly season approaches all thanks to our dear friends at WHOOP. So sit back, relax and check your resting heart rate, because that SOB is about to go through the roof with an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are back bigger, better and more bodacious after a much needed week off. The lads have rested their weary bodies and sharpened their footy minds in order to tackle this week's double dose of RC magic and to celebrate Mr Giteau's 43rd Birthday in style. On the show we went cover to cover on the Wallabies’ narrow loss to the All blacks at Eden Park, extending their unbeaten streak at the ‘Garden’ to 52 wins on the trot and we have a seriously deep gander at the weird and wacky result out of Durban that saw the Springboks slap the rumps of the Pumas to the tune of 67-30. Plus, the KOKO lads are joined by the Eastern Suburbs eshay and Canberra’s clippered up king Mr Tom Wright, to chat about how his ACL recovery is going, when we can expect him back on the pitch and what it was like to see James Slipper play his 150th Test Match over the weekend.

With the boys getting older and the beers flowing more freely we checked back in on our KOKO Fitness Challenge to see how the lads are progressing or regressing in their goal to reach that ever elusive 10% body fat. However, thanks to our new friends at WHOOP the boys can track their journey and see in what areas they are excelling and where they need to lower the shoulders and partake in a couple of tough carries. Finally, we took some time to celebrate the mighty English Red Roses on their incredible World Cup win at Twickenham, as they took down those crazy Canadians 33-13 in some serious style. Congratulations Girls! So sit back, relax and get ready for a refreshed dose of debauchery, the boys are back with juice in the tank and love in their hearts to give you an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we unshackled our chains, cut the bow lines loose and unloaded the dead weight, that is right Swoop is sick and there isn't a bloody guest within cooee of our glorious studio. Our thoughts and prayers were dispensed to a sick little boy on the couch called Swoop, whether it is the spring time sniffles, his hayfever ramping up or two cracking nights on the lash, a sick little puppy is a sick little puppy. Despite being down one of our valuable foot soldiers, Matt Giteau, Drew Mitchell and The Prof really stepped up to the plate and took some ‘big ole’ swings at analysing this topsy turvy, curly wurly and herky jerky RC competition. The lads cast their educated eyes over all the ra ra action from across the weekend, shedding light on how the Wallabies were a pack of naughty boys against the Pumas in Sydney and how the All Blacks got slapped silly in record setting style by the surging Springboks. Moreover, the boys armed with their footy IQ’s and a belly full of beer threw the proverbial leg over all the possible RC machinations in the hope of finding some clarity in this Even Steven season. 

Plus, we say farewell to the valiant Wallaroos from the 2025 Rugby World Cup, applauding their efforts and achievements in reaching the quarter-finals and showcasing the progress women's rugby has seen both on the pitch and in the stands. Congratulations girls, we couldn't be more proud! Finally, our Swoopless trio of heroes had a little look at the Super Rugby AUS matches from the weekend, expressing their highlights and low lights from the two matches that showcased the next generation of Aussie stars. It is clear due to the mercury rising that spring is springing and souls are singing for some of that rock hard Aussie vitamin D. So kick off your well oiled Chelsea boots and slide on those Positano purchased driving loafers, it is time for an all new episode of Kick Off and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by three whopping guests, that is right we are bringing you a smorgasbord of footy talent that can only be found on a podcast hosted by three Wallabies has-beens and one footy wannabe. With the RC completing its third lap around the sun the boys are joined by everyone's favourite moustachioed mountain big Willy Skelton to chat about the Wallabies massive comeback against Los Pumas, as well as the Boks coming up short at Eden Park against the All Blacks. Plus, big Willy gives us an exclusive scoop as to whether or not this large lump of loveable energy is available for selection when the Bledisloe Cup comes around. As the RC hits its midway point the results have never been closer and the stakes have never been higher, thus the KOKO lads unpack all the machinations that could possibly unfold in what is shaping up to be a magical final three matches. 

Plus, we are joined all the way from Brighton by two of the best Wallaroos that have ever laced them up. Both of these ladies are part of the fantastically fabulous 40 Cap club and they are both playing in their third World Cup, so please welcome the formidable pairing of Ashley Marsters and Trilleen Pomare. As the Wallaroos head into their Quarter-Final match-up against the clinical Canadians the girls shed some light on what it will take to beat the 2nd best team in the world and progress even further into the tournament. Plus, Ash and Trill have a little bone to pick with the Royal Family as a certain majesty had a little more time for the rampant Roses compared to our wonderful Wallaroos. With that all being said, it is time to practice your bow and work on your curtsey, as we serve up a new King sized episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show the lads get down and dirty with their ‘ra ra’ previews this week, as they wine, dine and come off the pine for the upcoming third round of The ‘RC’. With all four nations sitting on one win each, this year’s ‘RC’ is as tight as a mouse’s waistcoat and it is anyone's for the taking. Thus, to summarize the upcoming weekend of footy frivolities, the Wallabies are in their “Building phase” and taking on Los Pumas who are in their “Record Breaking Phase”. Whilst those crafty Springboks are in their “no longer world number 1 phase” and are hoping to break an 88-year hoodoo at Eden Park against the All Blacks who are in their “our local community hates us again” phase, so as the classics say, rugby will be the real winner. Moreover, the fellas once again set alight their competitive spirits as they ‘mano a mano a mano’ in an Argentinian flavoured KOKO Quiz.        

Plus, we are joined by Wallaroos enforcer, lineout specialist, veterinary physio and most importantly the latest member to join the 40 cap club, the one and only Vi-queen Michaela Leonard. The lads with Michaela in tow unpacked all the happenings from the Women’s RWC in England, focussing on the Wallaroos’ draw with the USA and what the girls have to do against England to clinch that last finals spot. With the whole nation at their backs the Wallaroos have highlighted that a fast start, brutal defence and quietening the crowd is the secret sauce needed to take down the world number one English Roses on their own turf. So rise up Australia and get behind the Wallaroos as they fight for the final spot in the quarter-finals this weekend. So, sit back, relax, kick off your pristine RM’s and take a double dose of your gout medicine, this episode is going to be as fun as 4am finish at your favourite watering hole. It’s time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we deliver you some serious double trouble in the guest department, as we are joined by Italian Centurion Martin Castrogiovanni live in the studio and all the way from Manchester the Wallaroos swiss army knife Lori Cramer gets up early to talk some shop. The big, bold and extremely beautiful Castrogiovanni shakes off the effects of ‘Fiji Time’ to join the lads live on set and chat about the Boks bouncing back in Cape Town over the Wallabies and how the ‘Win’ Pumas created history knocking off the All Blacks for the first time on home soil. However, when Castro is in your presence it isn’t all fun filled frivolities about footy, this former tight headed loose unit has had a colourful career, filled with funny yarns, huge fines and kick ass parties. So get ready to laugh your finest Italian Merino socks off, because this larger than life long haired larikin really blows the bloody doors off. 

Plus, all the way from sunny old ‘Mancs’ Lori Cramer jumps online to discuss the Wallaroos’ smash up job of Samoa in match one of the RWC, as well as how the girls are shaping up to take on the foe adorned in stars and stripes, the USA in match two. She opens up about what life is like in camp, the pressures surrounding a good World Cup run, as well as admitting to the fact that she might actually be the Drew Mitchell of the Wallaroos squad. So ladies and gentlemen, sit back, relax and enjoy the KOKO ride, because this old chestnut takes some tangy twists and turns. It is time for an all new ep of Kicks Off and Kicks Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we have two very special guests that top and tail this groundbreaking episode. To start off, the lads are joined by one of the most prominent voices in South African rugby, a man that has played 9 tests for the Springboks and from all reports he does his best work at altitude, it is of course Mr Hanyani ‘Shimmy’ Shimange. Whilst Shimmy was stuffing his face with humble pie, the lads discussed the Wallabies’ historic win at Ellis Park over the World Champion Springboks, breaking down how it happened from 22-5 down and where it all went wrong for the shell-shocked home side. The boys looked at individual moments, plays and performances that shaped this drought breaking win, whilst also looking forward to this week’s match in Cape Town and what we can expect to see from this wounded Springboks side. Plus, when all the gloating and yahooing quietened down we eventually moved on to cover the other TRC result from the weekend, which saw the mighty All Blacks server up some seriously fast footy to take down Los Pumas 41-24 in Cordoba. With week one of the TRC in the books, it is fair to say this Wallabies team has shocked the rugby world, but here at KOKO we told you this ‘Schmidt’ was going to happen.

To continue this groundbreaking piece of podcasting history we are joined by Wallaroos enforcer and metre eating sensation Bree-Anna Browne. She joined us from the Wallaroos’ World Cup camp in Manchester to spill all the tea on what their tournament prep is looking like and how training is going before game one against Samoa. The KOKO Show along with Australia are throwing all their love and support behind the ‘Gals in Gold’ and here is hoping they shake things up at RWC2025. So sit back, relax and adorn those beautiful faces with pore clogging face paint, this week we are eating, drinking and sleeping all things green and gold. In conclusion we just want to say “stand up Australia” it is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the lads are joined by the newest inductee into the World Rugby Hall of Fame, a man that has played over 80 games for the Wallabies, has won a Lions Series and has lifted ‘Bill’ above his beautifully sculpted head. He is one the best Aussies to ever do it, so please welcome Mr 172…Matt Burke. With the Lions Tour well and truly in the rear vision mirror the lads with Burkey’s help are turning their attention to the TRC, which is kicking off this weekend with the Wallabies taking on the Springboks and the Pumas hosting the All Blacks. We have always said that the TRC is the south’s version of the Six Nations, just with bigger players and better footy…jokes of course. Thus, the fellas set out to give you a full preview of this upcoming succulent feast of fast paced rugby, with squads, tips and smoking hot talking points. The boys also get around to addressing some of the news sweeping the Rugby Union landscape this week, but none bigger than Australia’s own Matt Burke getting himself a funny little hat, a cancelled trip to Monaco and having his Hall of Fame presentation in torrential rain at Homebush. Thanks to our dear friends at Budgy Smuggler you will notice the boys are draped in the finest Wallabies pyjamas and looking the part on a set overlooking the Sydney Harbour Bridge, but fear not our fearless fans we might be in a new location but we guarantee the same old shit. So sit back, relax and pour yourself a crisp white from the Napa Valley, it’s time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the lad’s souls are bent but most certainly not broken. After eight weeks of touring alongside the Lions, KOKO has returned home to bind their wounds and rebuild for what is going to be an exciting Rugby Championship. Thanks to our dear friends at Guinness we break down Test Match three in our ‘Perfect Pour’ segment and the lads celebrate the fact that this young Australian team are building to something special with a home World Cup on the horizon in 2027. The fellas looked in every nook and cranny from Saturday night's game and they have determined that the Lions are worthy winners of the 2025 series, however, they opened up both barrels on all the pundits that claimed it wouldn't be worth touring to Australia and that Wallabies are not worthy foe… How do you like us now? So as we put a tidy little bow on this record breaking series, bathe in Wallabies glory and get a new script for Doxycycline from our GPs, the lads turn their attention to the TRC and how this young Aussie side will go against the other Southern Hemisphere juggernauts in only a matter of weeks. So sit back, relax and wave goodbye to the sea of red, congratulations on the series win but please politely leave this country that you sent us to and don't come back for another 12 or so years… only kidding. Sorry we got carried away. It is now time for a buoyant and happy episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show the lads try and pick up the pieces after experiencing what was an emotional weekend for Aussie rugby fans in Melbourne. If you have been living under a rock, the Wallabies were pipped at the post on Saturday by a resurgent Lions team that claimed a big series win 2-0 at the MCG. Despite being heartbroken and frustrated with the result the KOKO lads paint on a pretty smile and give you a full review of what happened at the ‘G’ in Guinness’ ‘Perfect Pour’ segment and they reiterate just how important it is for the Wallabies to pick themselves up, dust themselves off and show up big in Sydney.  

The lads are joined by one of the greatest to ever do it in George Gregan and they discuss how the series might be done but the ability to keep writing this resurgent Aussie rugby narrative is well and truly still on track. With George’s rugby mind overflowing with brilliance the KOKO Crew dive deep into the psyche of a champion to see where he believes Aussie rugby is at and where it needs to go. So, sit back, relax and tip your cap to the Lions, they deserve our respect. It is time for an all new yet slightly sorrowful episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

Direct to you from Melbourne the KOKO Crew breakdown all the action from MCG, merely moments after Lions have clinched the 2025 series. The lads discuss their raw emotions after the Wallabies were dramatically pipped at the post in truly heartbreaking fashion. The fellas have a little look at moments from the game that saw the British and Irish Lions claim a famous series victory after trailing by as much as 18 points throughout the match. To round out the review, the lads talk about the heart and effort shown across the board by both sides and they illuminate the positive green shoots of potential that the Wallabies have shown over the past two weeks. As a nation we will get back up, dust ourselves off and get ready to go again in Sydney and beyond. Get ready for the KOKO Game 2 review Victorian style!
