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

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

This week on the KOKO Show the lads use the warmth of mateship and connection to repair their wounds sustained in Bris-Vegas, we mend, we grow and we do it all again in Melbourne. As you all know, 52,500 screaming fans took to Brisbane last week in the hope that their side would take the choccys in the first match of the Test Series. The KOKO crew use this episode to unpack all the action from the Lion’s dominant win over the Wallabies, a match that saw the touring team take the result out of the hosts hands in the first 40 mins. The boys pontificate on possible coaching changes in game two, as well as the Wallabies remaining focused on sticking to a gameplan and working on execution rather than rediscovery. As the Melbourne match edges itself into focus, the ‘G’ explodes into raptures and the Wallabies' destiny hangs by a thread. It is time for the Wallabies to stand up and make this one count. It’s time to re-adjust the current take on Australian Rugby and it is time for another episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

Direct to you from Caxton Street in Brisbane the KOKO Crew breakdown all the action from Suncorp Stadium, merely moments after Lions clinched a 1-0 lead in the 2025 series. The lads discuss where the Lions excelled throughout the 80 minutes and where the Wallabies need to improve in Melbourne for game 2. The fellas have a little look at moments from the game that were turning points in the series opener, as well as certain officiating decisions that hampered the game for both sides in the contest. To round out the review, the lads look forward to next Saturday where these two teams head to the 'Grand Old Lady' (MCG) either for the Lions to claim a dominant series win or for the mighty Wallabies to square the ledger.

This week on the KOKO Show we come to you from the glorious confines of the MJ Bale flagship store in Martin Place, Sydney. The lads are dressed to impress with some silky threads that lift the spirits and allow the human form to podcast like they have never podcasted before, all thanks to MJ Bale. We have arrived ladies and gentlemen, the first Test Match between the Lions and the Wallabies is soon upon us and the KOKO Crew couldn't be more up and about at the prospect of two great teams doing battle at Suncorp Stadium. To help us along this joyous journey, we have enlisted the help of two very special guests. The first has played over 90 caps for Wales and he was one of the brave men that took down the Wallabies in 2013, it is none other than Dr Jamie Roberts and the other is triple international, cross-code footy legend and rugby media’s leading lady Allana Ferguson.

Jamie joins the lads for the first half of the show to muse and discuss how both sides will shape up and prepare this week leading into the first Test. We discuss potential tactics, predicted sides and what the Lions will do to navigate this growing laundry list of injured players. Plus, ‘The King’ sticks around to give us his ‘Perfect Pour’ from the weekend just gone, all thanks to our headline sponsor Guinness, as well as playing a little game of ‘Which Lion Was it Anyway?’

We have always said, when one guest leaves you replace them with someone better. Step to the fore Allana Ferguson. All thanks to our great friends at TAB, Allana joined the show to crunch the odds heading into the first Test Match this Saturday in Brisbane. Plus, she unleashes her depth of knowledge to give us a full wrap of the Wallaroos’ encouraging loss to the Black Ferns in Wellington and how the ladies are shaping up with the Rugby World Cup on the horizon this August.

So in summation, it is time to bloody lock in. We have waited 12 long years to get our chance at revenge against this crimson clad gaggle of geezers and let’s not let this one slide. They have taken over our beaches, booked up our restaurants and are smugly drinking our beer. But they will never take our podcast! It is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show we are joined in the studio by great mate of the pod, Japanese rugby’s hunkiest half and Wallabies legend, Mr Bernard “The IceMan' Foley. The Nard Dog along with the KOKO Crew go really deep on the Wallabies’ last gasp win over the Flying Fijians in Newcastle, as well as breaking down the Lions’ hard fought victory over the gallant Waratahs in an all new serving of the ‘Perfect Pour’ thanks to our headline sponsor Guinness. 

Plus, the guys get caught up in the beauty of numbers as they preview all the upcoming matches on the British and Irish Lions Tour, focusing heavily on the Lions’ clash with the Brumbies this Wednesday all thanks to our great mates at TAB. If you thought to yourself, that just doesn't seem to be enough footy for my liking, we also run you through the AUNZ Invitational XV that will take on the Lions this Saturday and the guys mount a case about how this star-studded roster might be the team to tame these freckle faced felines. Finally, to round out this pleasure packed pod of production perfection we couldn't help but bring back a second instalment of the highly anticipated game that is sweeping the nation 'Which Lion Was It Anyway?’    

So, sit back, relax, pour yourself an ice cold Guinness and please avoid any large groups of Lions fans. To paraphrase one of the greatest movies of all time ‘Cool Runnings’ - ‘Feel the rhythm! Feel the rhyme! Get on up! It’s almost Test Match time’. Ladies and gentlemen please enjoy the latest episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on the KOKO Show we thought to ourselves it is time for a little trip back to ‘No Guest Nonsense Land’, the second happiest place on earth, a place where the boys who sit on the couch week in and week out can truly shine and are at full liberty to derail this podcast if they see fit. Thanks to our fantastic headline sponsor Guinness we are going full throttle throughout this British and Irish Lions Tour and they are making sure you, our loyal fans are coming on this journey with us. In this week’s episode the lads cover more footy than you can poke a bloody stick at, we hit you with a brand new rendition of Guinness’ ‘Perfect Pour’ from the Lions v Force match, we chit chat about the demolition job South Africa inflicted on the Barbarians, we look forward to the Reds v Lions thanks to TAB and finally we preview the Wallabies v Fiji in Newcastle.

As the weather gets colder the footy is getting hotter, we are now entering the eye of the Lions storm and the lads at KOKO couldn't be happier to bare knuckle box their way through all the x’s and o’s to keep ye KOKO faithful well informed. We have reviewed and previewed everything the light touches this week and to finish we bring you a brand new game called ‘Which Lion Was It Anyway?’ and let's just say the boys get a little competitive.

So sit back, relax and have some fun watching their feline furries take over our island home. They are bold, brash and barely bathed, which is not dissimilar to the four lads that do our show every week. It is time for another episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the sirens have sounded and from all reports the enemy is well and truly at the gates. That is right the British and Irish Lions have arrived on our shores after getting their pantaloons and long socks ripped up by the pouncing ‘Win Pumas’ in Dublin. Thanks to our new headline sponsor Guinness, we are bringing people together through the love of sport, as we debut our brand new segment ‘The Perfect Pour’. Plus, thanks to our dear friends at MJ Bale the KOKO lads are looking on point, as we show those Northern nobody's that us Aussies can scrub up just fine, because if you look good, you feel good and then you can pod good. 

Plus, Ladies and Gentlemen as we nestle up nice and close on the eve of the Lions Series, we decided to roll in one of Australia’s big guns as this week's very special guest. This fella was side by side with our very own Swoop as the Wallabies went nose to tail with the Lions in 2013, he has played over 100 tests for the Wallabies and people would pay good money to crouch, touch, pause and engage with this beautiful big rig. It is of course the large engine that will and has, Mr Sekope Kepu. With Keps in tow the lads fine tooth comb the upcoming series, they gauge his excitement about coaching against the Lions and we get a myriad of A-grade stories that paint our guys in some interesting lights.

Finally, the KOKO Crew breaks down the Super Rugby Final, which saw the mighty Crusaders rise to the top of Southern Hemisphere rugby once again to claim their thirteenth title over the table topping Chiefs. In addition to that, we dissect the Wallabies squad that has been announced to take on Fiji in July, as we talk ins, outs and everything in between. So sit back, relax and deadbolt your doors, the Lions and their fanatics have arrived on our shores. It is time for another episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the lads serve up a big old bowl of rugby flavoured frosted flakes, regaling tales of the tape from the South to the North and everywhere in between. To help us on this journey as the enemy creeps ever closer to our shores, we are pleased to unveil our new major sponsor for The Lions Tour, it is the one and only, delightfully delicious and surprisingly refreshing Guinness. With Guinness being the unofficial beer of rugby fans around the world, it is fitting they have partnered with us, as we are unanimously the unofficial podcast of rugby fans in all the galaxies. 

Moreover, the mighty KOKO Show has not only landed a blue-chip sponsor, but this week we are joined by a blue-chip guest. Swoop has once again put the rubber on the road and lured in one of rugby’s dead set supernaturals. This fella has played 17 tests for the All Blacks as a player, but he truly found his calling in the coaching ranks, winning 3 World Cups and 4 Super Rugby titles; we think it is fair to say this bloke knows his x’s and o’s. It is of course the Oracle of New Zealand rugby and the ‘real’ Professor of everything awesome, Sir Wayne Smith. With Wayne in tow the lads dove deep into the world of coaching, touching on what makes great coaches tick, how coaches can get the best out of their cattle and who he thinks will win the Lions Series based on style and structure. 

Plus, we wrap up the Superb Rugby semi-finals, the lads gander at the URC and Premiership Grand Finals and finally we look at the British and Irish Lions Series Winner odds powered by our dear friends at TAB. The lads then round out the show by locking in some more hungry ‘Lion Tamers’ and running through our laundry list of Live Shows that are happening in each and every city. So sit back, relax and pour yourself a fresh juicy Guinness, this one will most certainly hit different. It is time now for the newest episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

This week on The KOKO Show the band is back together to celebrate the fun, frivolity and fineries that finals footy has to offer. We tackle all the action of the Super Rugby Qualifying Finals, whilst also looking forward to the seismically sensational Semi-Finals this coming weekend. Plus, we get a little naughty up North for all the footy loving legends on the more populous side of the Equator, breaking down all the Champagne rugby from the URC and Premiership Semi-Finals.

To help us on our journey towards podcasting perfection, we enlisted the help of one of the greatest finishers of all time to dot this episode over the white line and claim victory for the good guys. This Fijian born South Auckland raised wrecking ball made a career out of cashing cheques and snapping necks as he ran past you at a rate of knots, please welcome the swan-diving sensation that is Mr Joe Rokocoko. With Joe in tow the lads reflect on his sublime 98 Test Match career, the times he made all three of them look like chumps and what it actually takes to be one of the best wingers the rugby world has ever seen.

To cap off this tremendous trot down the wingers walk of fame the lads finalise a few more selections in our table topping team of ‘Lion Tamers’. Moreover, they have a greasy little gander at some hot off the press ‘Other Rugby News’, all in the name of keeping you, our loyal listener well informed. So, book yourself a Swedish hot stone massage, sip on the complementary ice cold cucumber water and bluetooth your way into some KOKO bliss. It is now time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.
