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.    TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 - START OF THE SHOW 00:16 - HEADLINE SPONSOR ANNOUNCEMENT 01:19 - INTRODUCE THE BOYS 04:24 - HEALTH CHECK WITH THE BOYS 06:55 - SWOOP’S PACKING POSITANO’S PEBBLES 08:48 - DREW FLYING ON A PRIVATE JET 10:31 - SAN DIEGO LEGION UPDATE 12:38 - ‘MATCH FIT’ BROUGHT TO YOU BY POLO RALPH LAUREN 16:03 - SOCIAL SNITCHES 21:09 - RUGBY ROUNDUP SEGMENT 24:08 - ADDING TOM WRIGHT TO THE HALFWAY WALLABIES XV 31:13 - ADDING THE JUNKYARD DOG TO THE HALFWAY WALLABIES XV 36:57 - SUPER SIZZLERS BROUGHT TO YOU BY BEEFEATER 41:07 - WALLAROOS V BLACK FERNS DEBRIEF 43:04 - NORTHERN HEMISPHERE LEGENDS SEGMENT 52:18 - INTRODUCE QUADE COOPER 55:48 - QUADE TALKING ABOUT JAPAN AND THE SEASON JUST GONE 58:20 - QUADE ON PLAYING WITH WILL GENIA AGAIN 59:00 - QUADE ON JAPAN RUGBY GROWING THE GAME 01:02:59 - PROF ASKING QUADE ABOUT LIFE IN JAPAN AND THE ONSEN CULTURE 01:06:50 - QUADE ON HIS RUGBY FUTURE 01:07:50 - QUADE ON LEARNING TO LOVE TRAINING 01:11:33 - QUADE ON MISSING THE RWC AND WALLABIES FUTURE 01:14:07 - QUADE ON THE IMPORTANCE OF SENIOR PLAYERS IN A SQUAD 01:17:06 - WHICH YOUNG 10 WOULD QUADE PICK FOR THE WALLABIES? 01:18:24 - START ONE, BENCH ONE AND DROP ONE - THE QUADE EDITION 01:24:50 - THE KOKO QUIZ WITH QUADE COOPER 01:35:34 - QUADE ON HIS LOVE OF CLOTHES AND HIS BRAND SHOSAI 01:36:57 - PROF ASKS THE BOYS IF THEY THINK QUADE WILL BE IN THE WALLABIES 01:37:12 - POLO RALPH LAUREN PLUG 01:39:09 - FAREWELLS AND CLOSE OF THE SHOW Big thanks to Polo Ralph Lauren for their support and remember you can buy everything you saw on the show from you local MYER or online - https://www.myer.com.au/b/Polo%20Ralph%20Lauren BUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE RIGHT NOW - www.budgysmuggler.com.au/thekokoshow Make 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 [email protected].
