À propos du podcast
A rugby show like no other, where the only thing bigger than the names are the laughs and good times.
In an unfiltered chinwag with host and comedian, James 'The Professor Rochford, Adam Ashley-Cooper, Matt Giteau and Drew Mitchell share incredible stories from their global careers and offer their take on rugby's latest happenings. Every week we'll be diving into what’s been going on across ‘the game they play in heaven’ amongst other on and off-field fun.
Imagine catching up with your mates at the local drinking hole and debriefing on the weekend's antics…that is if your mates were some of the best rugby players of all time!
That’s the low-down. We love making it and hope you'll love tuning in.

Notes de l’épisode
The Wallabies have been absolutely battered at Twickenham, going down 45–22 to England in a crushing defeat that has left Australian rugby with some serious questions to answer!
Three straight losses, 40+ points conceded in three consecutive Tests for the first time in history, and a home Rugby World Cup fast approaching. The pressure is mounting on Les Kiss and his Wallabies, but how the hell do they turn things around?
This week on KOKO, the boys pull apart Australia's horror show against England. From defensive disasters and discipline issues to a struggling attack and England's frightening depth, nothing is off limits! Is this a Wallabies side lacking confidence, or are they simply a long way off the world's best? And more importantly, how do they pick themselves back up before facing Scotland at Murrayfield?
We also get the inside word from Wallabies camp with Jamie Pandaram from CODE Sports, who gives us the latest on the mood within the squad, Les Kiss's reaction and what needs to change before the next Test.
Plus, our Rugby Round-Up thanks to Visit Brisbane covers another massive weekend of Nations Championship action! The All Blacks survive a Scottish scare, the Springboks absolutely dismantle Italy, Ireland put Argentina to the sword and France run riot against Fiji!
With just ONE YEAR until the 2027 Rugby World Cup Final in Sydney, the boys also take a trip down memory lane to that heartbreaking 2003 Final against England, thanks to Rugby World Cup Experiences. Can the Wallabies turn things around in time for rugby's biggest party on home soil?
Throw in our sexy stats thanks to ActiveOps, the Hahn How Good Fan Moments, Pillar Performance updates, plenty of UK Tour excitement and the usual KOKO nonsense!
The Wallabies are down, but are they out? There's plenty to unpack in Episode 38!

THE WALLABIES FACE THEIR BIGGEST TEST YET, THE POMS ARE WAITING AND STEPHEN HOILES JOINS THE KOKO CIRCUS!
It's crunch time for Australian rugby!
The Wallabies have landed in London for a MASSIVE showdown with England at Twickenham, and this is much more than just another Test match!With the 2027 Rugby World Cup fast approaching, Les Kiss and his men desperately need to make a statement against an English side that's beaten Australia eight times in their last ten meetings. Can the Wallabies silence the Poms on their own turf, or are we heading for another bloody English nightmare?
The boys dissect Les Kiss's squad selections, debate Australia's chances across the Northern Hemisphere tour and ask whether this weekend could be a defining moment in the Wallabies' World Cup preparations. Plus, Australia A absolutely towel up the USA 52–0!This week we're joined by former Wallaby, Waratahs legend and professional shit-stirrer Stephen Hoiles!
From coaching in America to returning to the Tahs alongside Michael Cheika, Hoilesy gives us the inside word on Australian rugby, his playing days with the boys and a few filthy stories that probably should've stayed in the dressing room!
Thanks to Visit Brisbane, we plan the ultimate Brisbane boys' trip and announce our upcoming KOKO UK Tour live shows!
We also celebrate Australian rugby's award winners with Hahn's How Good Fan Moments, check in on the lads' questionable fitness journeys thanks to Pillar Performance and deliver the usual assortment of rugby chat, absolute nonsense and inappropriate behaviour.

KOKO ROLLS OUT THE BIG DOG! WALLABIES HEAD COACH LES KISS JOINS THE BOYS FOR AN ABSOLUTE BLOCKBUSTER!
THIS IS A BIG ONE, KOKO FAMILY! We've had legends, larrikins, World Cup winners and some of the biggest names in rugby grace the KOKO couch, but this week we've landed the BIG KAHUNA himself! The man holding the keys to Australian rugby's future, the man tasked with rebuilding the Wallabies into a world-beating force, and quite possibly the most important bloke in Australian rugby right now… WALLABIES HEAD COACH LES KISS!
In one of the biggest interviews we've ever done, Les sits down with Gits, Drew, Swoop and Prof for a fascinating, funny and refreshingly honest conversation about his remarkable coaching career, the exciting Wallabies squad he's assembling, his wonderfully weird coaching techniques and the massive Northern Hemisphere tour looming on the horizon. With the 2027 Rugby World Cup on home soil fast approaching, the boys get a rare insight into the man steering the Wallabies ship. And of course, this being KOKO, they couldn't resist throwing the boss a few curly questions to see whether he can handle the heat! This blockbuster interview is proudly brought to you by Visit Brisbane and their Sunrise Economy.
But there's plenty more rugby to sink our teeth into! The boys celebrate the Wallaroos making it three wins over Scotland, dissect Australia A's victory over the USA in Nashville and wrap up all the latest action from the wonderful world of rugby.
Plus, thanks to Hahn, we bring you our How Good Fan Moments as we farewell Wallaroos legends Emily Chancellor and Cecilia Smith from international rugby and celebrate Eva Karpani reaching the magnificent milestone of 50 Test caps!
Throw in a healthy dose of Pillar Performance, another cracking instalment of the KOKO Audiobook Club thanks to Audible, and the usual outrageous banter, questionable opinions and absolute carry-on from your favourite four rugby degenerates.
The Wallabies' top dog, a couple of massive Aussie wins and four blokes who probably shouldn't be allowed to interview the national coach. EPISODE 36 IS AN ABSOLUTE RIPPER!
It's time to KICK OFF and KICK ON!

Notes de l’épisode
Another year, another Bledisloe beating, and another 12 months of Kiwi bragging rights. The All Blacks have absolutely towelled up the Wallabies in Sydney, piling on 43 points and leaving Australian rugby with more questions than Drew Mitchell after a night on the beers.
The KOKO Show is back for Episode 35 as Gits, Drew, Swoop and Prof pick through the wreckage of Bledisloe 2, dissect the All Blacks' devastating first-half demolition and ask the million-dollar question: Where the bloody hell do the Wallabies go from here? With England waiting at Twickenham, the boys debate whether there's light at the end of the tunnel or if Australian rugby is heading for another long, dark winter.
But this week is about far more than footy, as we welcome former Wallaby, Western Force legend and all-round champion bloke Nathan "Cheese" Charles for an incredibly special conversation. From defying the odds with cystic fibrosis to his recent Motor Neurone Disease diagnosis, Cheese shares his extraordinary story of courage, resilience and perspective. It's a powerful reminder that some things are much bigger than rugby, although that won't stop the boys from dishing out a healthy serving of classic KOKO stupidity.
THE RUGBY ROUNDUP – THANKS TO VISIT BRISBANE
The boys celebrate the Wallaroos' demolition of Scotland, unpack the Aussie Sevens action and look ahead to Brisbane becoming Australia's ultimate sporting playground, with the 2027 Rugby World Cup, a massive calendar of sporting events and the 2032 Olympics on the horizon.
CAPE MENTELLE UNCOMPROMISING CHARACTER
All Blacks wrecking ball Peter Lakai takes the honours after a monster performance in Sydney. Plus, the boys relive their Cape Mentelle Long Lunch, where the wine was flowing and the rugby stories were getting progressively less believable.
SANTOS ENERGY WHERE IT MATTERS
We revisit the devastating 15-minute All Blacks blitz that ripped the heart out of the Wallabies and left 75,000 fans wondering what on earth they'd just witnessed.
HAHN HOW GOOD FAN MOMENTS
The boys relive the magic of their live Bledisloe post-match show at Accor Stadium, celebrate some incredible moments involving Nathan Charles and give a massive shoutout to the fans who stuck around to enjoy the chaos.
There's also Pillar's Personal Performance of the Week, where four former rugby stars attempt to rediscover their athletic prime through supplements and recovery, before KOKO's Audiobook Club thanks to Audible returns with Matthew McConaughey's Greenlights, as the boys attempt to find some life lessons from Hollywood's most philosophical cowboy. Alright, alright, alright!
The Bledisloe might be done and dusted, but the KOKO boys are only getting warmed up!

THE WALLABIES HAVE BEEN BROUGHT CRASHING BACK TO EARTH!
After all the hype, hope and belief that this could finally be Australia's year, the All Blacks delivered a brutal reality check at Eden Park in Bledisloe 1. The Wallabies were blown off the park, and now the big question is whether they can pick themselves up, dust themselves off and bounce back in Sydney for Bledisloe 2.
The KOKO Show is back for Episode 34 as Gits, Drew, Swoop and Prof dissect the Eden Park demolition, uncover where it all went wrong for the Wallabies and debate what needs to change if Australia is any chance of turning the tables on the All Blacks in Sydney.
We're also joined by former All Black Brad Weber, who gives us the Kiwi perspective on the Eden Park smash job, reveals what New Zealand really thinks of this Wallabies side and shares his predictions for the second Bledisloe showdown.
The boys crown Jordie Barrett this week's Cape Mentelle Uncompromising Character, while the All Blacks' ruthless ability to turn pressure into points from anywhere on the park earns the Santos Energy Where It Matters Moment of the Week.
PLUS, thanks to Rugby World Cup Experiences, we tackle one of rugby's biggest debates: Is Australia v New Zealand REALLY rugby's greatest rivalry? Or has a quarter-century of All Blacks dominance taken the shine off one of the game's most iconic contests?
And the KOKO family is getting BIGGER! We're absolutely stoked to welcome Hahn and Pillar Performance as brand-new sponsors of the show. Two cracking brands joining the KOKO madness — welcome to the family, legends!
Plenty of rugby, plenty of arguments and absolutely no shortage of Kiwi smugness.
It's all happening on Episode 34 of The KOKO Show!

24 YEARS OF PAIN. ONE MASSIVE CHANCE TO END IT.
The Wallabies haven’t lifted the Bledisloe Cup since 2002. They haven’t beaten the All Blacks at Eden Park since 1986. But after knocking off the back-to-back World Champion Springboks, could THIS finally be the Wallabies side that rewrites history?
The KOKO Show is back for Episode 33 with the ultimate Bledisloe Cup preview. Gits, Drew, Swoop and Prof break down the Wallabies’ chances, the Eden Park hoodoo, where the All Blacks can be beaten and whether Australia can finally bring the Bledisloe Cup home after 24 long years.
The boys also take a walk down memory lane, revisiting some of the greatest Bledisloe performances of years gone by to crown this week’s Cape Mentelle Uncompromising Character.
Back home, the Western Force are Super Rugby AUS Champions after taking down the Waratahs in the Final. The boys unpack the decider, while the Force’s BIG THREE — Kurtley Beale, Nick Dolly and Dylan Pietsch — earn the Santos Energy Where It Matters Moment of the Week after huge performances when it mattered most.
Then things get loose with Prof’s Big Rugby Questions, before another edition of KOKO’s Audiobook Club thanks to Audible.
And finally, it’s time for THE FINALS BRACKETOLOGY thanks to Rugby World Cup Experiences. The boys work their way through the potential 2027 Rugby World Cup knockout stages and, through a completely unbiased and highly scientific process, officially crown the WALLABIES 2027 RUGBY WORLD CUP CHAMPIONS!

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.

Notes de l’épisode
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!

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!

Notes de l’épisode
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!!!!

Notes de l’épisode
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.

Notes de l’épisode
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.

Notes de l’épisode
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.

This week on the KOKO Show we are serving up a ‘no guest nonsense' episode on the King’s Birthday Long Weekend, and boy do we give this one the royal treatment. With Swoop stuck in Lithgow and Goit cosy in Canberra, the lads bring to the fore more bloody rugby than you can poke your little stick at. As all the Aussie Super Rugby sides have now bailed out of the competition the boys give you an in-depth rundown of all the Qualifying Finals results, we pick our semi-final winners and we hand down a little report card for each of the Aussie sides in 2026. 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.

Notes de l’épisode
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.

Notes de l’épisode
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.

Notes de l’épisode
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.

Notes de l’épisode
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.

Notes de l’épisode
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.
