The Wallabies Break a 62 Year Drought and KOKO lets Shimmy Hear all About It!
This week on The KOKO Show we have two very special guests that top and tail this groundbreaking episode. To start off, the lads are joined by one of the most prominent voices in South African rugby, a man that has played 9 tests for the Springboks and from all reports he does his best work at altitude, it is of course Mr Hanyani ‘Shimmy’ Shimange. Whilst Shimmy was stuffing his face with humble pie, the lads discussed the Wallabies’ historic win at Ellis Park over the World Champion Springboks, breaking down how it happened from 22-5 down and where it all went wrong for the shell-shocked home side. The boys looked at individual moments, plays and performances that shaped this drought breaking win, whilst also looking forward to this week’s match in Cape Town and what we can expect to see from this wounded Springboks side. Plus, when all the gloating and yahooing quietened down we eventually moved on to cover the other TRC result from the weekend, which saw the mighty All Blacks server up some seriously fast footy to take down Los Pumas 41-24 in Cordoba. With week one of the TRC in the books, it is fair to say this Wallabies team has shocked the rugby world, but here at KOKO we told you this ‘Schmidt’ was going to happen.To continue this groundbreaking piece of podcasting history we are joined by Wallaroos enforcer and metre eating sensation Bree-Anna Browne. She joined us from the Wallaroos’ World Cup camp in Manchester to spill all the tea on what their tournament prep is looking like and how training is going before game one against Samoa. The KOKO Show along with Australia are throwing all their love and support behind the ‘Gals in Gold’ and here is hoping they shake things up at RWC2025. So sit back, relax and adorn those beautiful faces with pore clogging face paint, this week we are eating, drinking and sleeping all things green and gold. In conclusion we just want to say “stand up Australia” it is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.Sign up to get first access to Budgy Smugglers Limited Edition Wallabies Pyjamas: https://budgysmuggler.com.au/pages/wallabies-pyjamas-early-access?utm_source=KOKO&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=WallabiesPJsTIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Start of the show02:00 - Initial reactions to the Wallabies win03:18 - Introduce Shimmy04:57 - The reaction in South Africa 06:39 - South African changes for game 2 08:12 - South African fans in shock 10:12- How do South Africa nullify McReight 11:57 - What went wrong in the second half?14:05 - What did Rassie say after the game? 16:34 - the struggles of playing at altitude18:30 - Cocky SA fans at half time 21:50 - Siya Kolisi’s injury and the world rankings23:33 - Farewell to Shimmy24:56 - Best spots in Cape Town26:27 - SOUTH AFRICA V WALLABIES KOKO REVIEW35:00 - ARGENTINA V ALL BLACKS KOKO REVIEW40:45 - The KOKO Quiz 45:56 - The Bree-Anna Browne Wallaroos interview 48:11 - Wallaroos team bonding 50:00 - Prepping for match 1 against Samoa 52:37 - Wallaroos players to watch out for in England 56:39 - Bench, Start and Drop 01:01:14 - Merch Update Budgy Smuggler PJs out now 01:02:47 - Goit’s gripes with parents at Saturday sport 01:04:38 - Close of the showBUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE AND STAY TUNED FOR EVENTS - www.kickoffsandkickons.comMake sure you follow us on all socials:INSTA: @kickoffskickonsTWITTER/X: @kickoffskickonsYOUTUBE: @kickoffsandkickonsTIKTOK: @kickoffskickonsIf you do want to talk about sponsorship or anything business related then please do get in touch with us info@shtn.com.au.

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

The KOKO Crew Wrap Up the Lions Series by Celebrating a Wallabies Win
This week on The KOKO Show the lad’s souls are bent but most certainly not broken. After eight weeks of touring alongside the Lions, KOKO has returned home to bind their wounds and rebuild for what is going to be an exciting Rugby Championship. Thanks to our dear friends at Guinness we break down Test Match three in our ‘Perfect Pour’ segment and the lads celebrate the fact that this young Australian team are building to something special with a home World Cup on the horizon in 2027. The fellas looked in every nook and cranny from Saturday night's game and they have determined that the Lions are worthy winners of the 2025 series, however, they opened up both barrels on all the pundits that claimed it wouldn't be worth touring to Australia and that Wallabies are not worthy foe… How do you like us now? So as we put a tidy little bow on this record breaking series, bathe in Wallabies glory and get a new script for Doxycycline from our GPs, the lads turn their attention to the TRC and how this young Aussie side will go against the other Southern Hemisphere juggernauts in only a matter of weeks. So sit back, relax and wave goodbye to the sea of red, congratulations on the series win but please politely leave this country that you sent us to and don't come back for another 12 or so years… only kidding. Sorry we got carried away. It is now time for a buoyant and happy episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Start of the show 03:24 - Prof’s David v Goliath debate 04:54 - KOKO Learnings 11:08 - WALLABIES V LIONS TEST MATCH 3 REVIEW16:19 - Guinness Perfect Pour Segment 22:23 - Prof’s Sexy Stats brought to you by Active Ops 28:20 - KOKO Lions Series Awards 35:40 - KOKO Lads Tour Highlights 40:58 - Looking forward to the TRC 41:52 - WALLAROOS V WALES REVIEW AND WC SQUAD43:38 - Merch Update 44:46 - Sponsor shoutouts 46:07 - The lads sum up the Lions Series 49:30 - Socials and website49:49 - Thanking the crew 50:44 - Sydney Carnage Package 01:02:34 - Close of the show BUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE AND STAY TUNED FOR EVENTS - www.kickoffsandkickons.comMake sure you follow us on all socials:INSTA: @kickoffskickonsTWITTER/X: @kickoffskickonsYOUTUBE: @kickoffsandkickonsTIKTOK: @kickoffskickonsIf you do want to talk about sponsorship or anything business related then please do get in touch with us info@shtn.com.au.

George Gregan Stops by to Lift KOKO’s Spirits after the MCG Madness
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.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Start of the show 03:09 - KOKO Learnings 09:42 - WALLABIES V LIONS GAME 2 REVIEW 24:28 - Guinness Perfect Pour Segment 29:12 - Guinness Sydney Live Show plug 29:28 - KOKO welcomes George Gregan 32:48 - Greegs’ take on Test Match 2 34:00 - If Greegs was captain what would he have said at halftime?35:46 - Greegs’ take on the Gordon and Lynagh combo 37:05 - Greegs on why he wont lace the boots up again 40:07 - Drew talking about how Greegs used to say wingers shouldn’t go into touch41:20 - Greegs on where Aussie rugby is at right now 46:13 - Greegs on how good this Lions team is 47:58 - Greegs on that decision 50:09 - Greegs on John Eales as a captain 54:03 - The boys on what they learnt from George 01:01:02 - BENCH, START AND DROP01:05:52 - Sexy Stats brought to you by Active Ops01:08:34 - TAB Segment 01:11:09 - MJ Bale ticket plug 01:11:02 - WALLAROOS V WALES 01:11:55 - MERCH PLUG01:14:15 - KOKO Melbourne carnage packageBUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE AND STAY TUNED FOR EVENTS - www.kickoffsandkickons.comMake sure you follow us on all socials:INSTA: @kickoffskickonsTWITTER/X: @kickoffskickonsYOUTUBE: @kickoffsandkickonsTIKTOK: @kickoffskickonsIf you do want to talk about sponsorship or anything business related then please do get in touch with us info@shtn.com.au.

The KOKO Show goes Full Throttle with a Brisbane Test Review, Whilst also Looking Forward to Test Two in Melbourne
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.

Jamie Roberts and Allana Ferguson Help KOKO Prepare for the First Test
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.

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.
