Kick Offs and Kick Ons

This week on The KOKO Show we come to your eyes and ears from foggy old London, where people come to complain and sun tans come to die. The Special guest this week on KOKO does not have a long neck nor feathers, but boy he is a bit of a goose. He is England’s most capped player of all time and from all accounts one of the best blokes to ever grace a footy field. We apologize you have to listen to this pint-sized pain in the ass for a whole episode, but we are truly grateful that Mr. Ben Youngs dropped by for a chat.

The boys run through the whole slate of Test Match footy from week 2 of the November Internationals, starting with the Wallabies record-breaking win over the woeful Welsh, England falling short once again to their Southern Hemisphere counterparts, Les Bleus bouncing the big boy All Blacks and plenty more from around the grounds. Thanks to our dear friends at MYER we bring you some silky summer threads from the dullest place on earth in a confusingly beautiful mixed bag ‘Match Fit’ and we fire up the grills to deliver our ‘Super Sizzlers’ from the weekend’s action, brought to you by BeefEater and Appliances Online.

So lock up families, chain up your pets, and clear out your safety deposit boxes. The KOKO Contiki Tour is in full swing and Holiday Swoop has been let out of his cage. As we have always said on this show, when the Wallabies ‘Schmidt It In’, KOKO ‘Schmidts’ alongside them but one thing is for sure our boys turn that ‘Schmidt’ up to a ten. So, sit back and enjoy as we lock in on those kilt-wearing caber tossers, that's right Scotland you’re next! But right now it’s time for an all-new Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we take a minute as a nation to bask in the radiant light of victory and the glorious healing properties of ‘Schmidting it in’ over the old foe. The lads whisk you away on an all expenses paid trip in and around how the Wallabies managed to win their first match against England at Twickenham since 2015, keeping the hopes of breaking the 40 year Grand Slam drought well and truly alive. To help us navigate this titanus tussle at ‘Twicks’ we tried to think of a former English great that would willingly allow us to rub his nose in the fact that Australia is simply just better as a country, so we landed on Gits’ big burly and often baked bear of a best mate, Mr Alex Corbisiero who gives the show some much needed direction pointing out the areas of the game that caught his eye and the importance of professional identity. Furthermore, to put a bow on this vital victory for the mighty men in gold we dish up our ‘Super Sizzlers’ brought to you by BeefEater and Corbs generously graces us with a ‘phat rap’ dedicated to our show.

Plus, we also cover all the other big dog bouts including the All Black’s upset of Ireland, the Boks silencing the Scots and of course Fiji whaling on Wales. We know what you are thinking, what are you guys wearing whilst you piece together this rugby roundtable of awesomeness? Well thanks to MYER the fellas are fashionably on point and they show you just what to buy for summer in the newest instalment of the always wonderful mixed bag ‘Match Fit’. So lie back and get comfy as we tell you a raunchy tale from the weekend entitled ‘The Grand Slam’, where the Northern Hemisphere wined and dined the South, then we rolled around in their fields a little, used their shower, sullied their tooth brush and never called them again, leaving the North’s ego bruised, used and confused heading into week 2 of the tour. It’s time for an all new Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week in the ‘KOKO Match Review’ the boys celebrate an amazing Wallabies win against the old foe England in the dying moments at Twickenham. The ‘Gladiators of Gold’ showed a new identity of grit and determination to claim only their second Test Match win over the motherland in their last twelve matchups. The gang analyzed Aussie debutant Joseph Sua’ali’i’s performance as he became only the second Wallaby behind our very own Matt Giteau to play their first professional rugby union match on the international stage. Although Joseph’s bank balance might have a few less commas than Goits, he did however manage a feat that our little legend couldn't by claiming player man of the match honours in his very first outing. In a game where both sides landed punches and weathered storms, the lads highlight that for the Wallabies Len Ikitau had a formidable performance in every facet of the game and for the English it is fair to say Marcus Smith has put a stake in the ground as a premier fly half in world rugby. However, it was Joe Schmidt’s men who dug deep for the full eighty minutes and ensured that the always elusive Grand Slam title was still alive and kicking for the Wallabies in 2024.

The lads will cover every square inch of this cracking Test Match documenting the emotional ebbs and flows of International rugby and how the mighty Wallabies took a Schmidt on England’s parade. So wake the fuck up and smell the roses that we just stole from those pesky primadonna Poms. Australia it is time to stop checking your blood pressure, pop a ‘xanny’, pour yourself a spritz and just bathe in the warm and fuzzies that a win over England provides. Please enjoy another dose of the ‘KOKO Match Review’.

This week on The KOKO Show the boys are joined by a Wallabies Test Centurion, pint sized powerhouse and just all around great bloke. This fella was known for his delicious service from the base of the ruck and the amazing ability to live on a steady diet of self confidence and Pepsi Max. That is right, Will Genia drops by to impart his wisdom, footy insights and humour on our delightful panel of dullards. In this episode the boys break down the All Black’s nail biting victory over England, as well as Scotland's schooling of a feeble Fiji at Murrayfield. Fret not ye KOKO cool cats, this is not where the ‘ra ra’ ramble ends, as the fellas fine tooth comb their way through week 1 of the November Internationals giving you personalised previews of all the hot tips and count flips when it comes to deciding who is better between the North and South. However, we spend a little more time on how Joe’s ‘Gladiators of Gold’ are shaping up to dismantle the motherland and priming themselves to sufficiently ‘Schmidt’ on England’s parade.

Plus, thanks to our beautiful friends at MYER for keeping this show on its toes, we slide out another silky yet sensual ‘Match Fit’ that promises to hit you in all the right places. Furthermore, with the mercury rising and the ocean glittering our hankering for a grilling session is coming to the surface, so thanks to BeefEater and Appliances Online the time for a BBQ is now. So sit back, plug in your iPod shuffle, flip a couple of snags and bask in the glow of KOKO, as we prepare the nation to watch our mighty Wallabies turn Twickenham into a temple of torture, whilst joyfully downing our foes that wear that silly rose. Ladies and Gentlemen, It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the lads are back after a much needed hiatus, filled with meditation retreats, prostate exams and day trips to their local VIP gaming facilities. All in all it is fair to say that they are back with a renewed energy for life and the sole mindset of delivering to you our beautiful fans a just above average entertainment experience. With this being our first episode back on the horse after a break we thought let's not burden our beautiful minds with the pressures of a special guest, but rather let’s see this wild beast of a ‘no guest nonsense’ show organically grow to thoroughly encompass both the joys of rugby union and the unrivalled shenanigans deep within us all.

Thanks to MYER this show is able to remain on the air and this week they kept the lights on so we can give you a full preview of the upcoming spring/autumn tours where us the salty Southerners will once again pull the pants down of some Northern nobodys in dramatic Test Match fashion. In this episode we give you a full run sheet of how each team plans to ‘Schmidt it in’ north of the invisible line whilst also preparing the residence of the UK and Ireland for their impending arrival to the ‘Motherland’ for our highly anticipated KOKO Spring Tour brought to you by MIXR and the WRU.

Plus, our sun kissed studs show off their exquisite summer ready loot from MYER in another masterful mixed bag Match Fit. We also sing our praises for the gorgeous humans at Easy Times Brewing Co for their delightfully delicious and drinkable drops and of course you can't have beer without a BBQ, so we give a massive thanks to BeefEater and AppliancesOnline for their continual support.

So please raise your hands if you have missed us! Well we are back whether you like it or not and we are after only one thing and that is to be ‘Kings of the Noth’. As the Wallabies make tracks beyond the great divide to set the record straight, KOKO will be there every step of the way. As we have always said “When they Schmidt, we Schmidt, let’s all Schmidt it in together”.

This week on The KOKO Show we say farewell to The Rugby Championship and we congratulate the Springboks on their first win in 5 years, as well as acknowledging their charmingly chunky trophy case. Soon it is our belief Rassie will need a rental space to stash all their hard earned and metabolically manifested hardware from across the globe. In order to put a neat little bow on this Southern Hemisphere slugfest of Test Match rugby we get the boys to grade all the nations in the TRC on how they performed in the past six games and where they stack up as they head north for their respective spring tours. Whilst we talk about our little friends north of the Equator, the KOKO Crew drop the dates and details for their hotly anticipated spring time tour, as the lads get ready to ruthlessly rumble with live shows in Cardiff, London, Edinburgh and Dublin. So please head to our website for all the necessary information, so you the punter can be part of this debaucherous descent on the UK and Ireland.

As we take a little step back from the Test Match arena this week, we decided that there is no greater distraction from the ebbs and flows of footy than our next very special guest. If you ever need to fill a pod from whistle to whistle then this bloke is your answer, because when he gets tired talking about himself he has every expectation that you will pick up the baton and continue this self-centered lovefest. This larger than life loveable larrikin stopped by KOKO HQ for an unforgettable session and turned this once quaint and humble rugby show into the throbbing hog it has always wanted to be. So please put your hands together for this full time fucking legend and part time grumpy bastard. He is a big, bald, beautiful Brisbane boy and he is The KOKO Show’s Mt Everest, it is the one and only Mr Wendell Sailor.

However, in between all these delightfully Dell infused discussions we find some time to show our major sponsor MYER some love with a masterfully manicured mixed bag ‘Match Fit’. Plus, we sucked back on a couple of lagers from Easy Times Beer Co and discussed our ‘Super Sizzlers’ for the week thanks to our dear friends at BeefEater and Appliances Online. So if you are in need for a little trip down ‘Degenerate Drive’ to really loosen the shackles and get amped for summer then this show is the one for you. It is time for another episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on ‘The KOKO Match Review’ the boys are up bright and early nursing sore heads and weary eyes to give you ‘ra ra’ roundup like no other. We will fine-tooth comb our way through Bledisloe two, where the All Blacks were pushed to the edge early by a brave and willing Wallabies team in windy Wellington. After getting off to a fast start this week the Wallabies mounted significant pressure, but when push came to shove, the points came a lot easier for the big brutal boys from the land of the long white cloud. The papers and social clips will read that the Wallabies went down two to nil in the Bledisloe Cup, but it is clear to the naked eye that our ‘Gangsters of Gold’ are putting in a ‘Schmidt’ tonne effort and are progressing nicely. 

With the TRC on the line it would be reckless of The KOKO Crew not to address the neat little treat in Nelspruit between the Springboks and Pumas. Although the Pumas had a snowflake's chance in hell to hold the TRC title in their sassy South American hands, it was the banging Boks in the end that got up really big for Eben Etzebeth in his record breaking match. The ‘Green Goblins’ of gritty rugby proved way too strong at home for the pedestrian Pumas, claiming their much deserved place at the tippy top of The Rugby Championship. 

So if you are rising slowly this fine morning muttering the words “Sundays are for Swoop” then throw on your coziest crotchless pants and listen to our dulcet tones to get you really hot and heavy. It is time for ‘The KOKO Match Review’.

This week on The KOKO Show we take a long hard look at round five of The Rugby Championship, a weekend that saw the giddy guys of gold push the All Blacks to the edge in Bledisloe one, as well as the World Champion blazing Boks getting pantsed by the prideful Pumas in a one point thriller. These games are broken down and picked apart by the KOKO Crew as if they were vultures on a sun baked Kudu carcass lying in the middle of the Serengeti.

To help us through this delectable feast of footy filled fabulousness, we have called in the big guns. This fella is one of New Zealand's favourite and somewhat forgotten sons, In 2011 he was the first-five that went from whitebait fishing to World Cup winning. So, please put your hands together for the wholesome hairy Beaver, the Waikato Wizard and the only man to ooze sexy with the middle name Rexy, Mr Stephen Donald. In this week’s episode Beaver takes across the ditch to see what the classy Kiwis are saying about their side's sub-par performance over the weekend, whilst also lifting the lid on what appears to be the start of a footy fuelled national crisis in New Zealand.

With all this sporting sensationalism hooked straight to our veins, the boys felt it was pertinent to spend a little time to show MYER our major sponsor some love with a perfectly fierce, flashy and spectacularly ‘sigma’ mixed bag ‘Match Fit. Plus, we go around again with our meaty mates from BeefEater, serving up some serious ‘Super Sizzlers’ and the lads issue a big thanks to our purveyor of mothers milk Easy Times Beer Co for quenching the needs of four thirsty men.

On top of all this we roll out a couple of fan fables on the ‘Dear Drew’ hotline and we bring back a juicy ‘Northern Hemisphere Legends’ as the top-halfers go ham for footy once again. So get out your paints, don your smocks and dust off the old easel, we want you to paint us like one of your French girls, as this porous pod sinks to brand new lows. It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week in the ‘KOKO Match Review’ the boys peel back the layers on the All Blacks Bledisloe Cup victory in Sydney and they also have a little gander at top of the TRC tussle between Argentina and the Springboks. In James Slipper’s record breaking 140th cap for his country, it was the men from the land of the long white cloud that started fast against the wasteful Wallabies, stacking on the 21 unanswered in the first 15 minutes. Despite a brave and gutsy comeback from our ‘Gladiators in Gold’ in the second half, the early All Black rampage had us Aussies pushing ‘Schmidt’ uphill. It might be another ‘L’ in the results column for the Wallabies, but the KOKO Crew discuss at length the strengths and pitfalls of this young Aussie side heading into game two in Wellington.

The fellas also find a morsel time to touch on the ‘Big Boy’ bout between Argentina and South Africa. In a match where the stakes were sky high for both sides in relation to their TRC title hopes, but it was the punishing Pumas that went full alpha and said “hold my Malbec”, as they tightened up the TRC race heading into the final round in Nelspruit. With the Bled locked up at Razor’s ranch and the TRC crown still up for grabs, it is time for the men of KOKO to bathe in the delicacies and nuances of our beautiful game, please enjoy another dose of the ‘KOKO Match Review’.

This week on The KOKO Show we set the scene for round five of the TRC, bigging up all things Bledisloe Cup and how the Wallabies can leave a hypothetical bag of flaming Schmidt on the All Black’s doorstep. Despite the Trans-Tasman tussle being the centerpiece this weekend, we also give the Argentina v South Africa title race match a little love, debating whether the prancing Pumas have what it takes at home to pull down some silky Springbok slacks.

In order to enhance all this glorious rugby chat we have enlisted the help of one of the greatest Kiwis to ever do it. He might be small in stature but boy was he big in the ‘pain in the arse’ department, he is the puny punisher from Palmerston North and the Herculean halfback who broke Aussie hearts for fun. Please welcome our favourite little deep fried delicacy Mr Aaron ‘Nuggy’ Smith. On the show, Nuggy breaks down what it's like watching the All Blacks from afar, how he sees the Bledisloe Cup panning out and lifts the lid on the terrifying fact that his International playing days might not be over.

With all this manic footy preparation surrounding the KOKO Crew we spare a little time to show MYER our major sponsor some love with a perfectly curated, elegantly electric and decadently drenched mixed bag ‘Match Fit. Plus, we welcome back our meaty mates from BeefEater and the lads issue a big thanks to our new beer/mothers milk provider Easy Times Beer Co out of Brisbane.

On top of all this fiscal fanfare we fill this fallow week with three new spectacular segments which include, ‘Sundays are for Swoop’, ‘Get fit with Gits’ and ‘Dear Drew: The KOKO Hotline’. So sit back, lather yourself in coconut oil, sit in the sun and sizzle in the serenity of our podcasting putridness. They say there is nothing healthy about our show, but fuck me it is always a wild ride. It’s time for an all new Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we got down and dirty with Australian content royalty, Tom and Eddy from the Hello Sport Podcast were kind enough to open up their studio and minds to be used and abused by this poor excuse of a show. We talk about everything from the seasonal nature of rosé, the correlation between sports administration and dumpling consumption and the current standing of Union in the Australian sporting landscape. There is nothing quite like talking footy fables with new friends, all while sipping on a tangy little tequila.

Plus, the boys break down the medium rare Argentinian ass whooping the Wallabies received over in Santa Fe, pulling no punches as they unpack why we sucked, how we sucked and who sucked the most. However, on the other side of every World Record pride pounding there sits the victor and boy didn’t those Argies turn up the heat on our Aussie lads, until they were done like a dinner. Alas, as Australians, we get back on the horse, we go again and we try not to let the All Blacks make it 68-27.

Despite being an Australian show, it would be remiss of us not to debate the big dog duel between South Africa and New Zealand. It was the footy version of Foreman v Ali, Swoop v the elusive feature and Gits v saturated fats, minute to minute this grind of a match proved in the end why the Springboks are World Rugby’s benchmark.

So if you are a Wallabies fan and you are feeling a little down, a touch blue and you are onto your third bottle of Savvy B, we just say don't sweat the small stuff, the nation always needs a tidy right after the Schmidt hits the fan. So pick up the baby wipes, arm yourselves with windex and press play on the KOKO Show. Let’s clean up Australian Rugby together! It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

The Wallabies fell a long way short in Santa Fe against Los Pumas, unable to double down on their gritty win in the rain last week. The injury embattled ‘Boys of Gold’ got completely and utterly outplayed by the hosts in the second forty, as the Pumas piled on the points for fun. Plus, we also touch on that Cape Town ‘crunch-a-thon’, as the lads from the land of the long white cloud lose two on the trot to the blistering Boks. In a week where Australia stands as one to congratulate James Slipper for tying George Gregan’s all-time Aussie caps record, the ‘KOKO Crew’ are here right after the action to give you some hot takes, juicy tips and tangy touchpoints all wrapped up in a comprehensively disappointing review of some toe tickling Test Footy. Despite the early start on our end, the lads promise they are only three bloody marys deep and they are ready to rock your rugby related senses all morning long. So if you are up at the crack of dawn buffing an chiseling that slinky summer bod or just soaking in some self-blame from a Sunday morning walk of shame, just forget the world, pop two nurofen and wash it down with a good swig of luke warm KOKO. That’s right, it’s time for another dose of the ‘KOKO Match Review’.

This week on The KOKO Show we dive right back into the magical ecosystem that is The Rugby Championship season, nourishing our bodies with a gritty ‘Top Schmidt’ Wallabies win and nibbling on the big dog battle that saw the Springboks prevail over the All Blacks. With so much mouthwatering footy on the menu, it is only right that we pick both carcasses clean, like the analytical vultures we are. With the Wallabies well and truly back in the winners circle the lads bathe in the radiant aura of victory and boy it does it feel good. This episode Swoop was loud, Biv had his finger on the pulse, Gits was happy and Prof was Prof, giving you our beautiful fans a well rounded trip through the unforgiving yet always rewarding tundra that is International Rugby.

Plus, to help us deliver this sensory overload for your eyes and ears, we were joined by one of the greatest to ever lace them up. He is the Joburg Joker, the tip-toeing tech tycoon and the only bloke that can make racing animals and planes for money look cool. It is of course our South African sidekick Mr Bryan Habana.

With Spring now sprung and the mercury rising, the boys in partnership with our beautiful friends at MYER give our fashion focused fans a little taste of what to wear in warmer months in another mixed bag ‘Match Fit’. So flip out your shopping channel deck chair, get that coconut oil in all of your deepest crevices and soak up some springtime sun, with your four favourite flogs nattering in your head. It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

The under siege Wallabies went to South America looking to right some wrongs after two losses to the Springboks and boy did they answer their critics against the Argies. These Aussie battlers put in 80 of your toughest minutes to get back into the winners circle in La Plata. Plus, we will touch on the momentous comeback by the Springboks to defeat the All Blacks in the World Cup Final rematch in Johannesburg. The KOKO Crew are back once again to tango and tease your beautiful minds, whilst giving you all their intellectual insights and medium rare morsels from this weekend's games. Despite the boys battling through substantial hangovers and Argentinian level meat sweats, we always deliver on our big, bad and bold bonus content. So if you have just woken up from a Maradona inspired night out and your hair is looking ‘Messi’, just plug in your headphones, throw on KOKO and let ‘the hand of God’ massage out all of your aches and pains. That’s right, it’s time for another dose of the ‘KOKO Match Review’.

This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by a code hopping hooligan, he is one of the greatest to ever play on the wing in either code. This Fijian born flyer has a penchant for a good nap, carving up the dance floor to Usher and spear tackling Richie McCaw in a Test Match. So please put your hands together for the Sunny Bank sensation, a man who went bang at the Broncos and then titillated at the Tahs, he was alway the smoothest on the park and that's why they call him the Shark. It is the one and only Mr Lote Tuqiri.

Plus, with this past week being a fallow weekend for footy, we turned our attention to bigging up the Wallabies trip to Argentina and the clash of the titans in South Africa when the All Blacks try to play spoiler against the Springboks. On top of all of that we take a little peek at the grassroots level as we preview the Shute Shield Final between Eastern Suburbs and Northern Suburbs in the NSW domestic competition.

Lastly, but certainly not leastly we pay homage to the beautiful people at MYER, as we celebrate all the ‘Daddys’ out there with a little appreciation and exploration of ‘Spring Newness’. So strip off your layers as the sun reemerges from the chains of Winter, get out your antihistamines as Spring readies to fuck up your sinuses and just enjoy the dulcet tones of the KOKO Crew. It is time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we take you on a necessary journey of self-discovery and spiritual enlightenment. We are joined this week by a man that consistently played footy at the highest level and then after retirement decided to live at an even higher one. He has played 52 caps for the Springboks and he was the ‘legend face’ of Toulon Rugby, a man that draws you in with his warmth and unwavering energy, it is of course the father of flow and the patron of ‘pura vida’, Mr Joe van Niekerk. In this week’s episode the KOKO Crew get taken in a slightly different direction, we delve into the trials and tribulations of life after footy and what it means to find your ‘self’ post retirement.

With all that being said we still found time to dish you up a “succulent Chinese meal” of TRC content as we break down the Wallabies second defeat at the hands of the Green Machine in Perthfotein. Plus, we have a little gander at how the All Blacks took Los Pumas to the Garden of Eden and showed them how the big boys play. On top of all this yummy podtent, MYER is back in the fold presenting you with another deliciously fashionable instalment of ‘Match Fit’ and our dear friends at MANSCAPED AU allowed swoop to go hammer and tong at Biv’s bits.

So find your flow, open up your mind's eye and let this white light podcasting excellence fill your every orifice. This week we are aligning your chakras, whilst derailing everything else. It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

The embattled Wallabies went down swinging once again at the hands of the big bad Boks in weather more fitting for a day at ‘Wet n Wild World’ rather than a footy match. The KOKO Crew are back once again like a pack of hungry news reporters with absolutely no journalistic integrity to give you all their spicy takes and tasty touch points from Saturday's game. Although, we can't promise 100% accurate information, we can deliver unwavering charisma and unapologetic Aussie bias. So if you are stuck in a Wallaby induced mine shaft of depression, climb back out and soak up some Aussie spirit, swim with a whale shark and chug some of Margaret River’s finest. Just remember it is always darkest before the Wallabies ‘Schmidt it in’ again. It’s time for another dose of the ‘KOKO Match Review’.

So fire up your braai, pour yourself a brandy and put two hands on your boerewors, this KOKO collab is going to be a lekker ride. It's time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show the crew headed down the Hume Highway to surprise our little leader upon his return from the land of the free and the home of the brave. That is right, we went full bloody stealth mode to ensure the unofficial King of Canberra got the serenade he deserved fresh off his business class flight home.

Thanks to our special guest and former Wallaby Ben Alexander and his team at ‘The Dock’ in Canberra we had a fun little get together in front of Goit’s family and friends. We cover all things ra ra in the lead up to the start of the TRC focusing on the Wallabies matchup against the Springboks and touching on the All Blacks v Argentina clash. Gone are the ghosts of July series past and now it is time for the big dawgs to eat, woof, woof, woof baby.

Plus, in partnership with our headline sponsor MYER we serve up another mouth watering ‘Match Fit’ segment and this time it comes with undertones of capital chic, parliamentary poise and world leader wonderment. So get comfy in the backbench and play nicely with your ballot box as we crawl deep inside your cabinet. This time we cross the floor and knock down the ACT’s door, it’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week for The KOKO Show’s little extra something something, we are reaching deep inside the vault of family friendly parlor games and bringing out an oldie but a goody. That is right Biv, Prof and Mr DOGG are delivering you, our loyal foot soldiers, a spicy footy themed game ‘Rugby Union Celebrity Heads’.

I know what you are thinking, what happens when you have a big head, a grey head and a bald head playing a game of ‘Rugby Union Celebrity Heads’, well it is utter chaos, mixed intellects and endearing levels of confusion. So fix yourself a plate of nibblies, throw on your Uggs and think about who your rugby union celebrity hall pass is. It’s time for a little bit of KOKO bonus content baby.

This week on The KOKO Show we travel back to Ancient Greece, in order to rock the fuck out of a toga and understand what it is about the Olympics that gets the boys a smidgen hot under the saddle blanket. In a quest for experimentation and self-growth this show is going to try something a little different this week and tackle the giant that is the Paris Olympics. We touch on all the Rugby Sevens news from the first few days of competition, highlighting the valiant efforts of the ‘Golden Guys’, the role of Dupont in France’s golden glory and how the Aussie Women are shaping up for world domination.

Plus, the boys get out of their comfort zone as we dissect plenty of other amazing Olympic performances and the fellas pick their favourite moments from the 33rd games so far. We know Paris is famous for angry waiters, a metal tower and bloody big roundabout with an arch, but Mr Holiday Swoop lifts the lid on his must hits and naughty nooks you have to see when you visit the ‘City of Love’.

To cap off this très bien episode we get the competitive juices flowing with an Olympic sized quiz, filled to the brim with gold standard questions, as the boys fight it out for spots on the podium. So heat up your croissants, chalk up your mits and get your hands off ya batton, we are about to go full send on this triple pike of a podcast and of course we always stick the landing. It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we celebrate the mighty Wallabies going back to back to back in 2024, as we dive deep into the weekend's footy, throwing ‘Schmidt’ at the wall and seeing what sticks. With Mr Matt ‘Goitan’ Giteau sunning his bits and pieces in the SoCal summer, we have brought in a superstar replacement to adequately fill the void left by the richest man in Canberra. Our panelist this week is the fleet footed frontrower that cuts defenses up like a rusty old lawnmower, a baby faced bulldozer who will never hinge whilst getting off on a scrummaging binge. That is right, please welcome the bloke known as the Newington nightmare, he is all bells and no whistle and boy does he jingle all the way, it is the one and only Mr Angus Bell. 

In this week's episode we cover all the games from the weekend’s inter-tier bonanza of beat downs, we touch on San Diego’s disappointing exit from the MLR finals in our ‘Northern Hemisphere Legends’ segment and we have a little look at what the Wallabies need to work on moving into the upcoming TRC. Plus, it wouldn't be the KOKO spirit, without showing our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren some love, so we deliver you a ‘Match Fit’ straight from the catwalks of Milan, dripping in luxe living and dapper decadence. 

So pour yourself a double, spark up a winnie red and get cozy on your industrial strength water bed. This KOKO conniption is going to be a bumpy ride. Buckle up, be brave and get ready for your bell to be rung from all sides, it’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week’s bonus content comes in the form of a rare and majestic creature, some have said that it is more unique and glorious than the magical unicorn, that is right we have locked down fan favourite Holiday Swoop to answer some KOKO Kwestions.

People think that fella is all ra ra, winner’s piss and nights out on the town, but truth be told his insights on the game they play in heaven is unparalleled in the world of rugby media. Prof and Swoopy break down the beauty of rugby union, who inspired him to play and when did he know he had the goods to go all the way. So please sit back, pull down your strides and just let it all hang out as Uncle Adam tells you who's who in the zoo. It’s time for another instalment of KOKO Kwestions.

This week on The KOKO Show the boys bask in the ethereal light of back-to-back Wallabies victories over the willing Welsh, with the main focus being getting lit and talking Schmidt. As the Wallabies remain on pace for complete rugby world domination, the crew also find some time to break down the other ‘BIG DAWG’ Internationals from across the weekend, which saw the All Blacks pants England, Ireland put the Boks on the rocks and the Arigies fry up the French. With all this global footy lovin’ going on, we thought it would be fitting to bring in a guest that has faced all these foes and has come out the other side still baby faced and bushy tailed. This fella has played over 90 caps for Wales, he is a Six Nations Champion and has represented the Lions on six occasions. He is the headgear wearing hottie, the Bancyfelin bruiser and the vixen from the Valleys, it is of course Jonathan ‘Fox’ Davies. 

Plus, thanks to our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren brought to you by our beautiful friends at Myer, the lads are looking luminous, luscious and quite simply lovable in another stylish installment of ‘Match Fit’. We know we are too generous, but when you think we couldn't fit any more into this bloody show, we somehow find enough room to squeeze in the world's greatest pie and a little bit of Quiz action. That's right thanks to Four’N Twenty for sponsoring the KOKO Quiz and not only do they make pies that are 100% Aussie Beef, they are also 100% bloody delicious.

So, instead of taking a long walk off a short jetty, just throw on your most luxurious activewear, Fosbury flop onto your favourite ottoman and just let the dulcet tones of four half pissed lunatics try and tell you what happened this week in the world of rugby. That’s right, it's time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

As you all know The KOKO Show always goes above and beyond for its fans and for a little extra content snack this week Mr Moneybags Giteau sits down with the fearless leader of the San Diego Seals team, and Legion tighthead prop, Mr Darcy Breen.

Not unlike Bigfoot or the abominable snowman, we have been tracking down this big bopper for ages and now we have finally landed the man with more vertebrae than Healthy Harold the Giraffe. Gits picks his brain about a myriad of topics, such as, where his footy journey began, how to perfect the art of scrummaging, the benefits of a death-shake for bulking and why Mrs Incredible’s flexibility is so bloody attractive.

So please sit back, keep your posture on point and the core engaged, as we wouldn't want anyone to slip a disc whilst listening to this neck roll of an interview. It’s time for the newest instalment of ‘Bits with Gits’.

This week on The KOKO Show we unshackle ourselves from the world of high-end rugby guests to get down and dirty with the majestic temptress that is International Rugby. Prof and the boys peel back the layers on all of the big matches from the weekend, with special attention placed on the Wallabies' big win over the luckless Welsh. The crew give their in depth opinions and hard hitting analysis of Australia’s new era of rugby, as the men in gold successfully started the ‘Schmidting It In’ process with a gritty win in game one of their July Series.

Plus, we unpack all of the big DAWG duels that certainly lived up to their hype, with South Africa downing a gallant Ireland, New Zealand edging out a persistent England and France beating the Argies with the blunt end of a baguette. With week one of global games coming to a close it was a dominant display by the teams from the Southern semicircle of the world, which led the lads to renaming this week's juicy dose of ‘Northern Hemisphere Losers’ in order to be more accurate. Also in the show, we dish up a classic case of ‘What’s Drewing’, Prof is the target of his first ‘Social Snitch’ and finally Adam ‘Pieman’ Ashley-Cooper goes for a three peat in the Four’N Twenty KOKO Quiz.

Last, but certainly not least, thanks to our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren the boys are literally wearing too many threads to count and boy do they look sexy in this week's installment of ‘Match Fit’. So put on your cork hats, firmly re-plug your double pluggers and throw on your going out footy shorts, because the bloody Wallabies are back in the winners circle and it is time to celebrate with your favourite ra ra ramblers.

We present to you episode 24 of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week our extra content comes from you, our beautiful big brained brilliant fans. That is right we are debuting our new segment KOKO Kwestions where one of the boys answers viewer questions while Prof sits there and mocks them endlessly.

Once again Swoop managed to duck and dive the extra work, so this week Prof sits down with Drew ‘no budget’ Mitchell and they filter through a few listener questions, covering topics from Biv’s Wallaby debut all the way through to how athletes can deal with anxiety and the stresses of playing professional sport.

So sit down and keep quiet and who knows you might bloody learn something for once. It’s time for you to gnaw on the bonus morsel attached to our content bone, this is ‘KOKO Kwestions’.

If you have any questions that you would like answered by one of these highly decorated neanderthals please send them through to our email: info@shtn.com.au or DM us on insta @kickoffskickons. And as always please continue to ‘Schmidt It In’.

This week on The KOKO Show we have provided you with an absolute ball tearer of an episode as we transition into the beautiful oasis that is International Rugby. As we head into our 23rd week of life, the boys are joined by our favourite pint sized pioneer of quick ball and shit talk who is known for his skill, leadership and his beautiful top lip warmer. It is of course our number one Wallabies halfback born in a place named after a baked good, the one and only Mr Nic William White. With Nic in tow we submerge our souls deep down into the inner workings of Wallaby Camp, getting all the tea from our little mate as the Wallabies shape up to shatter the will of Wales.

As aforementioned, the boys get stuck into the majestic galaxy that is test footy as we build up and break down all the big International series that will be pleasuring your eyes and ears in the coming months. There is of course a little taste of home for those in the top half of the globe with a juicy ‘Northern Hemisphere Legends’ segment. Plus, back by popular demand Mr DOGG gives you the Cape Town edition of ‘Holiday Swoop’s Hot Spots’ and at the end we get ‘quizzy with it’ thanks to our dear friends at Four’N Twenty.

And I know what you are all thinking, where is the bloody ‘Match Fit’ segment? Well hold your Polo horses because with our headline sponsor at Polo Ralph Lauren the boys get real drippy this week with their fly and fresh fits. So sit back, relax and fix yourself a white wine shandy, as the KOKO Crew are about to make you randy. It's time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we give you a double guest charcuterie board filled to the brim with Olympic sized treats. We are joined by the one woman wrecking crew who prefers flattening opponents than crossing the whitewash, she is known as the Narrabeen Knuckle Duster, but we just like to call her Miss Sariah Paki. On top of having one of the star players, we thought let's also get the gentleman that puts these gold medal gurus through their paces. He is the Russel Crowe of the Women’s Sevens set up and boy does he have a beautiful mind, it is the mercurial messenger, Mr Tim Walsh. With the KOKO torch lit and the ceremony over, Sariah and Tim dove deep into their Olympic preparations, discussed the sacrifices for success and illuminated the best path for their gold medal domination in Paris.   

Plus, the boys most certainly jumped through all the Olympic rings to bring you your favourite KOKO segments including a full ‘Rugby Roundup’ where we breakdown the Blues v Chiefs final, we had a quick visit to Dr ‘What’s Drewing?’ to discuss Joe Schmidt’s first Wallaby Squad, as well as a little squizz at the winners and losers out of the All Blacks selection session. The boys then took a little jaunt North of the Equator to unpack all the footy action over the weekend which included England pounding Japan, the Springboks emasculating the Welsh, the Top 14 Semis and finally the URC Final.

Just kick back in your comfy, stylish and durable threads from our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren and let’s bloody manifest about living out our Olympic dream of being higher, faster and stronger together. So, all that is left to do is take your favourite Matt Giteau gummy, run to the fridge for snacks and hammer-curl a glass of crisp Savvy B, it’s time for another session of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

If you want more, you can have it. So this week’s extra content for you KOKO Show desperados is another little dose of ‘Prof’s Pick And Let’s Effing Go’.

This week Prof has a chinwag with our punditry purist Drew Mitchell to breakdown the Aussie Super Rugby Teams performances in 2024. The pair get into the weeds about the strengths and weaknesses of each team in the tournament and areas where growth is needed for 2025.   

In this segment we give you guys a comprehensive health check post the 2024 season and also how each of these teams may shape up heading into a new year.

So please sit back and listen to every bloody word these buffoons say because they know their Aussie footy and they only deliver sage analysis. It’s time for Prof’s Pick And Let's Effing Go’.

This week on The KOKO Show, the lads go free solo on another ‘No Guest Nonsense’ episode. We felt it was time to once again serve up a raw and glam-free helping of footy, fun and complete fuck-wittery. With Mr Muscles Matt Giteau joining us from the Midwestern utopia that is Chicago we had to get straight to business, whilst still treating you to a full KOKO buffet and still ensuring that the ‘Imposing Imp’ was early to bed and well rested for his big game.

Thanks to our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren, in partnership with MYER, the fellas are looking on fleek and are dripping with sumptuous style, for another installment of the always fashionable ‘Match Fit’. Plus, we give you a wall to wall ‘Rugby Roundup’ segment, breaking down what happened in the Super(b) Rugby Semi Finals, previewing the final between the Blues and the Chiefs, as well as a healthy dose of medicinal madness from Dr ‘What’s Drewing?’.

However, the fun doesn't stop there as we keep chillin’ and grillin’ with our dear friends at BeefEater and Appliances Online, throwing a couple of grassfed ‘Super Sizzlers’ on the barbie for you all to enjoy. As you all know the boys threw together a ‘Halfway Wallabies XV’ mid-way through the season and now that all the Aussie teams are out and Schmidty has his silky hands all over his cattle, we thought it was pertinent to make it official with The KOKO Show’s ‘Full-Way Wallabies Starting XV’.

So throw in your earpods and crank up that sound cancellation, drown out life and just bask in the beauty that is ‘No Guest Nonsense’, then get on the Internet and buy some Polo Ralph Lauren garb and a bloody BeefEater, so we can keep making your Tuesday’s tangy. It's time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we deliver you an episode with a Royal seal of disapproval, full of finals footy, funny yarns and a sensational guest. As part of our NHL’s segment this week we bring you all the action from the Gallagher Premiership Final between the Saints and Bath, but to cap it off we bring you some serious style from the Emerald Isle. This guest is slick, quick and we are pretty sure has bever been called a dick. He can sing, he can dance and boy can he play footy, this fella is the definition of triple threat. So, please welcome the crack-up from Cork, the Baron of Blackrock and the madman from Munster, the one and only Mr Simon Zebo.

In other news, the KOKO Crew dismantles the Super(b) Rugby Quarter Finals, whilst also preparing you for the Semis, we allow Biv to get a little bee out of his bonnet in ‘What's Drewing?’ and thanks to BeefEater and AppliancesOnline we drop you cheeky devils some ‘Super Sizzler’ action in the Rugby Roundup.

Finally and most importantly, we get the lads to spruce up, look fresh and get on the ‘Ab-Blaster 5000’ for another stylish yet svelte serving of ‘Match Fit’, brought to you by our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren and in partnership with MYER.

So sit up straight and suck in your core you lazy pricks, as we dish up a Royal inspired footy feast for your eyes and ears and trust us we SPARE no one. Ladies and Gents, it’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

On this week's dose of extra KOKO content we crown the winner of the ‘Debate the Top Eight’ competition.

Four weeks ago the lads laid out their predictions of the final eight teams left in the Suber(b) Rugby Playoffs and now the results are in, and not unlike an episode of The Jerry Springer show two of the boys will be told “you are not the winner”.

Through a myriad of complex algorithms and Mensa level math, our team of number crunching boffins have come to the conclusion there is only one daddy of the ‘Debate the Top Eight’ title.

So sit on the edge of your futon, throw on your UGGs and chew your nails down to the quick, as we go through the results to crown The KOKO Champion. 

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

This week on The KOKO Show the lads bring you two legendary rugby guests, one from yesteryear and the other currently doing his thing in the world of footy. Our first guest that joined us live in the studio is a long streak of pelican you know what, one of the greatest Kiwi players of all time and for over ten years was a real pain in the Wallabies’ butts. He is the know-it-all from the North Island, New Zealand's lanky lineout lothario and he is the man that got bail after one too many an ale, it is the one and only Mr Ali Williams.

It has always been this show's mission statement, what is better than one big bastard? That's right, two massive bastards.

So, all the way from the Queensland Reds inner sanctum we bring you the Gunnedah Goliath, one half of the ‘Brisbane Bash Brothers’ and a man that has more try assists than hairs on his head, it is of course Mr Harry ‘the future’ Wilson.

We know what you are thinking, what else can these pricks pack into one show? Alas, not only do we shower you with wagyu grade talent, we serve up a full Rugby Roundup, a smattering of news from north of the invisible line and we preview the Super(b) Rugby Quarter-Finals.

Last, but certainly the most important, thanks to our new headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren brought to us by MYER we get the lads and their sloppy rigs to hit the catwalk for another edition of our new and very dapper segment ‘Match Fit’.

So sit back and relax, slip into your favourite preppy yet sporty fit, adorn your shoulders with a glorious knit and tune into KOKO as we talk footy and shit. It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

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

This week The KOKO Show’s extra content comes in the form of a sit down interview between roommates.

That's right all the way from San Diego we have a new little segment entitled ‘Bits with Gits'. Matt ‘Goitan’ Giteau sits down with Former English frontrower, emerging grime rapper and one of the Legion’s assistant coaches, Mr Alex Corbisiero.

We know what you are thinking, what do a fly half and prop talk about when stuck in a studio together, just watch as we unearth the perfect odd couple. They chinwag about Corb’s career, his musical prowess, the art of scrummaging and there are some COSMO questions to round it out.

So put up your hammock, kick off your flip flops and fix yourself a spicy marg, get ready for the first, but certainly not the last installment of ‘Bits with Gits’.

This week on the KOKO show we are proud to announce our new headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren in connection with our dear friends at MYER. With the lights burning bright on the show we are now able to afford some A-grade guests, so this week we have lined up an absolute cracker. This man is one of Aussie Rugby’s most exciting players, with footwork and ball skills that leave opposing players tied up like German soft pretzels. He burst onto the scene in the mid 2000’s as the prodigy to end all prodigies, and boy he didn’t disappoint. That is right, this week we are joined by Brissy’s boxing bad boy, the quick, the quiet and the quirky, Mr Quade Cooper.

Plus, with Polo Ralph Lauren as our new sponsor we are rolling out a brand new segment called ‘Match Fit’, where we break down the boy’s looks for the show and have a deep dive into their aesthetic choices and fashion forward vibes. We also deliver all the fan favourites, as we unpack the penultimate round of the Super(b) Rugby regular season, we debrief on another disappointing Wallaroos showing, we have a ‘Social Snitches’ that turns back time and finally we give some love to our Northern Hemisphere legends after an epic Champions Cup Final. 

We are the gift that can now give more, as we have a true blue chip headline sponsor to back our shenanigans, so sit back relax and ask yourself the age old question “Do you think I can rock a turtleneck sweater this winter?” It’s now time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

We want more! We want more! Ok we heard you, you crazy bastards. So this week we are debuting some extra content for you KOKO Show loving truffle pigs.

We present ‘Prof’s Pick And Let’s Effing Go’ and this week Prof sits down with our very own Drew Mitchell to get into all the nooks and crannies of what was a glittering single ‘g’ career.

In this segment we get to peek behind the curtain and into the beautiful mind and footy history of one of Aussie rugby’s best blokes and greatest players.

So please sit back, take your 6pm No-Doz and wash it down with a stiff rumbo and cola as you enjoy a little extra KOKO lovin’. It’s time for Prof’s Pick And Let's Effing Go’.  

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

This week on The KOKO Show we are coming to you from all corners of the globe, Prof and Biv are in the studio in Sydney, Gits is lighting it up in San Diego and Holiday Swoop is bringing the heat all the way from Positano in Italy.

Much like a sunset kissing the top of an Amalfi village, this episode will make you feel things in the deepest and darkest corners of your pleasure department. Without a guest this week we welcome you inside the KOKO Dojo of Chaotic Mojo for some serious laughs and hardcore banter.

We break down all things Super(b) Rugby in the ‘Rugby Roundup Segment’, the lads serve you up a beautifully al dente ‘Northern Hemisphere Legends’ segment and there is of course a signature slice of ‘Social Snitches'.

For all you massive rugby nerds in the ‘KOKO-sphere’ the boys give you their hot-takes on the new law changes coming into the game in July, as we give you a very comprehensive dose of ‘What's Drewing?’

To finish the show we give you the fight you have all been waiting for, so throw out Fury v Usyk and disregard Ali v Frazier, as we present Tommy v Hugo in the Powerhouse Production Knee Wrestle of the Century.

So please sit back and enjoy this limoncello fueled mechanical bull ride of a show with some fava beans and a bottle of Chianti, because it is time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the lads go wall to wall footy with a couple of cheeky yarns sprinkled into the mix. We deliver a comprehensive ‘Rugby Roundup’ segment unpacking and unfurling Round 12 of the Super(b) Rugby, illuminating the teams that are in the hunt for glory and the others that can start preparing for a debaucherous Mad Monday.

With this in mind the lads don their outdoor aprons armed with their lucky tongs and serve you guys a smokey and saucy selection of ‘Super Sizzlers’, thanks to our friends at BeefEater and AppliancesOnline. We also dive into the unfortunate result for the Wallaroos in their first test match of the year, as they went down to the maple syrup crushing Canadians in Sydney.

However, this week our piste de resistance is currently considered a ‘Northern Hemisphere Legend’, but really is a Southern Hemi Sensation. This man is widely considered as one of the greatest centres the rugby world has ever seen, a man so bold he refuses to get old, with nicknames like ‘The Tank’ and ‘The Rock’ opposing player often felt liquid filling their sock. This man is a gentleman and a scholar so please stand up and holla, yes of course, it is the one and only Mr Ma’a Nonu.

So sit back, get yourself a plate with all the fixings and slip into your Sunday best as we spread another ‘Two-Time’ RWC champ across your soundwaves. That's right, it’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This time around on The KOKO Show the boys have a special treat with an all-time Northern Hemisphere Legend and Springbok speedster, a man with fast feet and an even faster car collection. You better bloody believe it, we chat to the king of the Cape and a hero in headgear Mr Cheslin Kolbe.

The boys also dish out an all you can eat serving of the Rugby Roundup, topped with an extra spicy Suber(b) Sizzler garnish thanks to our mates at BeefEater and AppliancesOnline. We then round out this mouth watering walk through the rugby world with a couple of new segments entitled ‘What’s Drewing?’ and the boys ‘Debate the Top Eight.’

So sit back, relax and drink in the serenity as we go on a footy safari to see ‘The Big Five’ loose units in their natural habitat. We beg you to be chipper for Cheslin, fabulous for footy, nuts about the North and hit a long smoko for KOKO. It's time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the lads are horsing around and bathing in the sweet sweet nectar of the Brumbies win over the previously undefeated Hurricanes. Much like a pack of hungry ‘Junkyard Dogs’ we forage through another spectacular round of Super(b) Rugby and thanks to our friends at BeefEater and AppliancesOnline we have a tender little lineup of ‘Super Sizzlers’ fresh off the grill.

The fellas also have a deep dive into the triumphant Super(b) Rugby W final, breaking down how the Waratahs dismantled the Drua to run the board in a spectacular undefeated winning season. Obviously, we understand that we have fans from both sides of the equator that join us week in and week out to bloody ‘Schmidt this thing in’, so we have served up an extra juicy NHL’s segment this week with flavours from Japan, England and the self-proclaimed leaders of the free world.

Plus, it would be completely LOCO if KOKO didn't have a special guest, so we have lined up a Brumbies young blood that is on his way back to the promised land. A man that has more footy smarts than Gits has gold bullion buried under his house, the fresh faced flyhalf of the future, the Ken amongst us mortal men, the one and only ‘bad boi Brumby’ himself Mr Noah Lolesio. So dust off your chaps, tighten your bridal and tip your Akubra to another real roughie of a podcast.

It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO show we give you the old school two guest turnaround, that's right more bloody exclusives than the humble rugby fan can poke a stick at.

First up the lads run you through a hilarious Goit inspired ‘Social Snitches’ from fourteen years ago, we also dive into everything Super(b) Rugby with another lashing of ‘Super Sizzlers’ brought to you by our friends at BeefEater and Appliances Online.

Then we really turn this mofo up to a ten, the KOKO crew have an exclusive first time interview with a dear friend of the show and new Western Force recruit, the one and only Mr Kurtley ‘KB’ Beale. But as wise men have always said, one guest is cute, and two guests are totally SLAY.

That is right we have doubled up for all our NHL’s (Northern Hemisphere Legends) and we have brought you the little legend from Leeds and the hottest half in the business, so please get your pump on and quaff your hair for the lightweight lothario that is Danny Care.

So kick back and relax as we wrap up the world of rugby like a delicious midnight kebab after a session with Holiday Swoop.

It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO show the boys lick their wounds from our Hong Kong bonanza as they detail the ups and downs of returning to normal non ‘holiday Swoop’ life. The crew also unpack a cheeky way to rehab an injury in this week's instalment of ‘Social Snitches’, plus we delve into another smashing dose of the Rugby Roundup and the lads also give their Super Sizzlers brought to you by BeefEater, from week 8 of the Superb Rugby Season. The KOKO Show isn't known for much, but one thing we hang our hat on is innovation, and this week we bring you two brand new segments, ‘Northern Hemisphere Legends’ - where we take a deep dive into all the rugby news North of the equator. The second new segment is a little gem entitled ‘The Halfway Wallabies Starting XV’, where the boys are given five positions each and they name their team as if it were picked tomorrow. This week we are joined by another very special guest, a gentle giant from across the ditch, a man known for his delectably destructive derriere, he might be all glute but his stardom is absolute, it is the one and only Mr Caleb Clarke. So, as the days get shorter and the nights cooler, slip into our warm cup of KOKO and let this episode massage all your stress away. 

It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

As promised, the KOKO Crew took on the Hong Kong Sevens and some may say we lost, but we maintain the dragon is slain. Thanks to the Hong Kong Tourism Board, Cathay Pacific and Ovolo Hotels for giving the show an experience of a lifetime, we went to the Sha Tin Racecourse, saw the city lights on a Aqua Luna Junk Boat, enjoyed some delicious food at the Stanley Street Dai Pai Dong, took in the views from The Peak and drank in all the red hot rugby action from the 10s and the 7s.

With the Hong Kong Sevens being one of rugby’s Meccas we were inundated with hall-of-fame guests including Dan Carter, Victor Matfield, Schalk Burger and Duane Vermeulen. Plus, we also jagged a few current superstars Maddi Levi, Charlotte Caslick and Michael Hooper throughout the course of the weekend for a chat.

This show is cover to cover action, laughs and a smattering of debauchery, as the lads tackled the Vertical City. To cap off the show we have delivered a second instalment of ‘KOKO Carnage’ that will leave our Melbourne adventure in its wake.

So please sit back, relax and pour yourself a stiff drink, as this will leave your nerve endings fried.

We present the life and times of Holiday Swoop featuring the KOKO Crew, it’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we packed down with a pair of pretty props. The first cab off the rank is a man that tied Stephen Moore’s Australian Super Rugby appearances record, and is only a handful of Tests short of George Gregan in the international record race. That is right we are joined by Mr James Slipper to chat all things Super Rugby, the Eddie Jones aftermath and the upcoming Wallabies test season.

Plus, we delve into everyone’s Supper Sizzlers brought to you by BeefEater from week six of ‘Superb’ Rugby, so stay tuned to see who sizzled and seared in the eyes of the KOKO Crew.

As is the motto of our show, one guest is fun, but two guests is a bloody great time. So, our second guest this week is England’s inked up enigma and true character of the game, all the way from the front seat of his car we were joined by the one and only Mr Joe Marler.

His big boy energy will fill your eyes and ears for a ripper of a time, we guarantee an episode full of great yarns, belly laughs and a quiz to end all quizzes. So uncork your good liquor, throw on your elasticated pants and slip into your favourite moomoo.

For this episode we encourage everyone to embrace and appreciate your inner thicc boy/girl, because it’s time for a front row sized session of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we rounded all the boys up after a big weekend of celebration as two of our wonderful Wallabies turned 40. As we nurse sore heads and bruised egos we are also joined by one of the best fly-halves to pull on the gold jersey, the one and only ‘Iceman’, Mr Bernard Foley.

Once again we welcome back the “Super Sizzler” brought to you by our new friends at BeefEater, where the lads break down who sizzled for them in the week of Super Rugby. The lads have dissected and pulled apart the whole weekend of rugby to find their hidden gems within the 5th round of ‘Superb Rugby’.

We then put the ‘Nard Dog’ on the hot plate grilling him about his highlights and lowlights from what continues to be a very successful career. He talks about all the success he is having in Japan, what it was like to win the Super Rugby with the 'Tahs and he leaves the door open for a 2024 Wallabies call up.

So forget about Maverick and throw away Goose it is time to fly solo with our very own ‘Iceman’. Pour yourself a double rumbo, order a succulent Chinese meal and crawl into your favourite snuggie as we get into the swing of Spring.

It’s time now for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on KOKO we have a show wall-to-wall with special guests, spinning yarns, chatting shit and most of all talking footy. The first cab off the rank in this episode is our Melbourne based firecracker Andrew ‘Kells’ Kellaway, the boys run riot talking about his career, the state of rugby in Victoria and we get a special performance of Kells blowing on his bagpipes.

For guest number two, we stayed in ‘Burn City’, as we were joined by Super(b) W superstar and former Wallaroos captain Grace Hamilton, to discuss her return to Australian rugby and what we can expect from the women's game in 2024 and beyond.

This week we also welcome a new segment to the show with the “Super Sizzler” brought to you by our new friends at BeefEater, where the lads break down who sizzled for them in the week of Super Rugby and we have a special announcement that the are back on tour to the Hong Kong Sevens, thanks to Hong Kong Tourism Board, Cathay Pacific and Ovolo Hotels.

Lastly, but certainly not the least, we spend some time basking in the beautiful emerald light of Irish glory, as the KOKO show delivers its grades for every team in a final run of the Six Nations Summation. To help us through this Guinness infused wrap up, we were joined by a KOKO fan favourite and legend of the show, the one and only Mr Mack Hansen. So tighten up your tunics, polish your pots of gold and get ready to river dance out of your pants.

It's time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

After last week's episode with new Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt, we knew we had to go up a level this week on the KOKO Show and that is exactly what we did.

On this week's instalment we are joined by the big dog in Rugby Australia's kennel. CEO Phil Waugh stops by to answer all the tough questions about the state of the game in Australia, as well as why Aussie rugby fans should be optimistic moving forward. The KOKO crew covered all the weekend's action from the third round of the ’Superb’ Rugby and we were lucky enough to be joined by the 'Sunshine State’s Sensei’ Queensland Reds head coach Les Kiss.

For all our Northern Hemisphere Homies we of course have given you a big serving of the Six Nations Summation in the lead up to the final weekend of the tournament. Finally, we leave ye faithful fans with a little yarn as Drew talks about his NYC bust up with a famous American rapper, in a new segment we call ‘Cocoa with KOKO.’

So sit back, enjoy and let the world of rugby cleanse your dirtiest thoughts, it's time to align your footy chakras with a little dose of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on Kick Offs and Kick Ons we take the show on the road. We headed down to Super Round Melbourne courtesy of TEG and had one hell of a time. On the show this week we dusted off our KOKO shirts, popped a few Nurofen and fixed our hair as we welcomed a very special guest on set, new Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt.

Smokey Joe told us how he has almost fixed Australian Rugby less than a week into the job, the Super Rugby players that have caught his eye and he shares his positive messaging for Aussie rugby fans. So let's get excited to see all Australian rugby teams "Schmidt it in" over the next couple of years.

After Joe had vacated the show to save his professional reputation, the boys recapped all the action from Super Round Melbourne took part in a Super Rugby quiz off and we share exclusive behind-the-scenes footage from our weekend down there

So sit back and gently run your fingers through your Melbourne hipster moustache and sip on your three quarter piccolo in a graffitied lane way, it's now time for The KOKO Show.

This week on KOKO the boys go a little loco because Taylor Swift is in town. We straighten our ties and dust off the shoulders as we put this cruel summer behind us and pen Australian Rugby a little love song.

On the show we are joined by the incumbent Wallaby and Queensland Reds number seven Fraser McReight as we break down their big win over the terrible 'Tahs, as well as all of the week one action from the Super Rugby Pacific. The fellas also take a little deep dive into Fraser’s life with a little game called “McReight or McWrong.” Although we bleed green and gold on this show, we haven’t forgotten about our frostbitten friends in the Northern Hemisphere, as we unpack the weekend of rugby in the “Six Nations Summation.”

Plus, we are joined by a very special guest and the most notable voice in rugby around the world, yes that is right, Jim Hamilton is on the show, as he blesses our pod with all of his sage wisdom, cracking stories and at the end he gets quizzical. So top up your flutes with a crisp Australian sparkling, sauce up your pies and kick back on the lazyboy, it’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

It’s a new week and a new us. That's right we are going loco on the KOKO for our new set. We have been given new everything by the beautiful folks at Appliances online, they have ensured that there is a little bit of elegance in this primarily classless weekly endeavor. This week the boys are joined by the most handsome man in Wales, you guessed it, the tall, tanned and terrific Lions legend Mike Phillips has joined the show for a very open and honest Six Nations Summation, hammering home the message that beautiful people need love too.

When you think that is all, this show is like the NYE fireworks, we always has a big finale. On the KOKO Show we roll in two members of Waratahs engine room, Ned Hanigan and Fergus Lee-Warner, adding a little country swag to this entitled little show. The lads talk all things footy ahead of the opening round of the Super Rugby Pacific season, the difference between a heifer and cow, as well as how much they want to fold Harry Wilson from the Reds.

We know what you are thinking, how does it get any better than this? Well we aren’t sure it will so please join this week as we serve up a little amuse bouche of rugby without the ‘rah rah’ opulence. It is now time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

Ladies and gentlemen we have arrived. It is safe to say that ‘Kick Offs and Kick Ons’ has launched with a bang. Prof and the boys clean out the cobwebs from a big off-season and are ready to run the ball straight into the upcoming rugby season. 

On ‘The KOKO Show’ this week we unveil our brand new ‘less is more’ set and outline our never ending quest for that rugby union sponsorship dough. Just as Australian rugby hits rock bottom we are there to catch them, as we cleanse the soul of the last 12 months and get excited for the appointment of new Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt and the Wallaroos’ hiring of Joanne Yapp as the first full time Australian women's head coach. We have saged off the evils of Eddie and now we are ready to ‘Schmidt it in’.

Although we are an Australian show, from time to time we like to take a little sojourn north of the Equator. That's right we are bringing you a brand new segment to start the season called ‘The Six Nations Summation’ with the help of a rugby Immortal, the one and only Jonny Wilkinson. We also delve into his rich rugby career and the time he spent tearing up Toulon with Gits and Drew.
