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. 00:00 - INTRODUCE THE SHOW AND BOYS 01:46 - GITS HEADING OFF TO THE USA03:24 - HONG KONG DEBRIEF AND RECOVERY06:28 - TEASING GUEST CALEB CLARKE AND NORTHERN HEMISPHERE LEGENDS 07:23 - MERCHANDISE PLUG 09:24 - SOCIALS PLUG10:17 - SOCIAL SNITCHES11:42 - RUGBY ROUNDUP SEGMENT20:59 - SUPER SIZZLER BROUGHT TO YOU BY BEEFEATER (www.appliancesonline.com.au)26:58 - WELCOME CALEB CLARKE34:57 - CALEB ON THE NEW ALL BLACKS ERA 37:39 - CALEB ON TRAINING WITH THE SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS44:03 - KOKO QUIZ WITH CALEB CLARKE51:09 - NORTHERN HEMISPHERE LEGENDS SEGMENT51:27 - WORLD CLUB CUP53:00 - BORDEAUX V HARLEQUINS 54:22 - LEINSTER V LA ROCHELLE 55:56 - NORTHAMPTON V BULLS 56:52 - TOULOUSE V EXETER59:10 - THE HALFWAY WALLABIES STARTING XV01:07:29 - SOCIAL AND MERCH PLUGS  01:08:08 - GOODBYES AND SIGN OFF BUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE RIGHT NOW - www.budgysmuggler.com.au/thekokoshowMake sure you follow us on all socials:INSTA: @kickoffskickons TWITTER/X: @kickoffskickons YOUTUBE: @kickoffsandkickons TIKTOK: @kickoffskickons If you do want to talk about sponsorship or anything business related then please do get in touch with us info@shtn.com.au.

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.00:00 - HELLO AND WELCOME02:32 - INTRODUCE THE BOYS AND HONG KONG HIGHLIGHTS05:28 - MERCHANDISE PLUG06:02 - SOCIALS PLUG06:23 - SUPER RUGBY ROUND UP09:55 - THE BOYS TALKING ABOUT HOLIDAY SWOOP12:06 - SUPER SIZZLER BROUGHT TO YOU BY BEEFEATER (www.appliancesonline.com.au)15:21 - SUPER W SCORES15:50 - HONG KONG SEVENS RUGBY RECAP16:35 - CHARLOTTE CASLICK AND MADDI LEVI INTERVIEW29:17 - MICHAEL HOOPER INTERVIEW31:21 - TEASING OUR OTHER GUESTS32:15 - DAN CARTER INTERVIEW49:20 - THE BOYS DISCUSS DAN CARTER'S LEGACY50:27 - OVOLO HOTEL MEET AND GREET WITH FANS52:08 - GOODBYES AND THROWING TO THE CARNAGE52:57 - AIRPORT ARRIVAL AND CATHAY PACIFIC FLIGHT55:33 - SHA TIN RACES59:34 - HONG KONG 10S AND KOKO DRINKS @ OVOLO01:02:33 - JUNK BOAT TOUR01:03:31 - FANCY DRESS SHOPPING FOR SATURDAY01:07:41 - FRIDAY @ HONG KONG 7s10:08:46 - SOUTH STAND SATURDAY01:12:07 - DUANE VERMEULEN, SCHALK BURGER AND VICTOR MATFIELD01:16:49 - STANLEY STREET DAI PAI DONG AND NIGHT OUT01:18:01 - VISIT THE PEAK 01:20:13 - HK7s FINALS WITH MICHAEL HOOPER01:21:13 - HEADING HOME01:22:30 - ENDING CREDITS BUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE FROM FRIDAY 12TH APRIL - www.budgysmuggler.com.au/thekokoshow Hosted on Acast.

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. 00:00 - WELCOME TO THE SHOW BERNARD FOLEY02:54 - KOKO MERCHANDISE IS OUT NOW!04:52 - TALK ABOUT THE BOYS 40TH07:12 - PRESENTS FOR THE BOYS10:47 - SOCIAL SNITCHES13:57 - VIRAL TWEETS 27:27 - SUPERB RUGBY ROUND-UP39:32 - 'SUPER SIZZLER' BROUGHT TO YOU BY BEEFEATER44:49 - TUPOU TO LEINSTER?46:22 - LIONS TOUR 202548:42 - COSMOPOLITAN'S DATING QUESTIONS51:09 - BERNARD FOLEY DEEPDIVE1:06:46 - THE NUMBER 10’S CHALLENGE1:18:12 - GOODBYES BUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE NOW! www.budgysmuggler.com.au/thekokoshow EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/thekokoshow - Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!

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.00:00 - WELCOME TO THE SHOW01:55 - INTRODUCING PHIL WAUGH 05:54 - RUGBY AUSTRALIA UPDATE WITH PHIL WAUGH 16:38 - THE SCHMIDT EFFECT 19:22 - MELBOURNE REBELS VS RUGBY AUSTRALIA21:45 - WHY BECOME CEO?23:00 - WHAT DOES SUCCESS LOOK LIKE FOR AUSTRALIAN RUGBY IN THE FUTURE?27:00 - FAREWELL TO PHIL WAUGH 28:25 - 'SWOOP' HAS ARRIVED 29:21 - SUPER RUGBY WRAP39:25 - INTRODUCING LES KISS AND THE REDS SEASON46:18 - THE KEY VALUES OF THE QLD REDS48:45 - LES KISS’ MESSAGE TO GITS49:53 - FRASER MCREIGHT THOUGHTS52:31 - JAMES O'CONNOR UPDATE54:00 - WHAT TO EXPECT FROM JOE SCHMIDT56:05 - SIX NATIONS WRAP UP58:55 - SAYING GOODBYE TO LES AND THE NEW MOON01:01:08 - SIX NATIONS SUMMATION01:10:20 - COCOA WITH KOKO01:19:00 - CLOSING THE SHOWEXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/thekokoshow Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!Who knows what the future holds but this is going to be a hell of a lot of fun!

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 thereSo 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.00:00 - INTRO TO SUPER ROUND01:44 - INTRO JOE SCHMIDT03:54 - JOE INTERVIEW STARTS09:39 - JOE ON THE BLEDISLOE11:06 - JOE'S COMMUNICATION WITH WALLABIES TEAM12:36 - JOE ON THE APPOINTMENT OF HIS COACHING STAFF13:44 - JOE ON THE BRITISH AND IRISH LIONS/ EARN THE SUPPORT15:56 - JOE ON THE WALLABIES DOCCO16:57 - PLAYERS THAT HAVE CAUGHT JOE'S EYE19:04 - JOE'S MESSAGE TO AUSSIE RUGBY FANS21:08 - SUPER ROUND WRAP UP29:55 - DREW GETTING HIS LIFE BACK ON TRACK30:50 - KOKO QUIZ37:05 - FAREWELLSWatch the YouTube episode to see our behind-the-scenes footage from the weekend!Who knows what the future holds but this is going to be a hell of a lot of fun!

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.

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.

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. As always, if it ain't broke don't fix it, we are bringing back the Quiz in 2024 and let’s see if Jonny knows more about himself than the boys do. So dust off your RM’s, steam your favourite polo shirt then sit back and enjoy as the KOKO show brings you all you need to know about the beautiful game of rugby.          00:00 - INTRODUCTIONS02:40 - WELCOME BACKS04:40 - WHAT'S COMING UP ON THE SHOW THE SHOW06:04 - NEW SET DESCRIPTION09:04 - SPONSOR UPDATE AND OPPORTUNITY10:18 - SOCIALS PLUG10:52 - PERTH SEVENS RECAP14:05 - SUPER ROUND PLUG WITH THE KOKO SHOW (LINK BELOW)16:00 - WALLABIES 2024 FIXTURES AND NEW CATCHPHRASE19:59 - GITS PRESEASON, ARMY CAMP AND COMEDY SET20:59 - AUSTRALIAN COACHING APPOINTMENTS  (SCHMIDT AND YAPP)/ HIGH PERFORMANCE26:13 - SIX NATIONS SUMMATION29:11 - INTRODUCE AND WELCOME JONNY WILKINSON29:50 - ITALY V ENGLAND REVIEW33:57 - WALES V SCOTLAND REVIEW40:37 - FRANCE V IRELAND REVIEW44:09 - SIX NATIONS ROUND 2 PREDICTIONS45:09 - DREW AND GITS PLAYING WITH JONNY AT TOULON58:48 - JONNY BOOK STORY1:00:25 - THE GOLDEN CHILD1:04:56 - WILKO'S MENTAL AND PHYSICAL STRUGGLES1:15:55 - JONNY’S TRAMPOLINING MISHAP1:21:37 - THE 2003 WORLD CUP FINAL AND LIFE AFTER THE KICK1:33:29 - ADVICE FOR A SUCCESSFUL CAREER1:37:17 - QUIZWho knows what the future holds but this is going to be a hell of a lot of fun!
