A huge Rugby Championship preview and an unwanted surprise for Matt Giteau

This week on the KOKO Show the crew headed down the Hume Highway to surprise our little leader upon his return from the land of the free and the home of the brave. That is right, we went full bloody stealth mode to ensure the unofficial King of Canberra got the serenade he deserved fresh off his business class flight home.Thanks to our special guest and former Wallaby Ben Alexander and his team at ‘The Dock’ in Canberra we had a fun little get together in front of Goit’s family and friends. We cover all things ra ra in the lead up to the start of the TRC focusing on the Wallabies matchup against the Springboks and touching on the All Blacks v Argentina clash. Gone are the ghosts of July series past and now it is time for the big dawgs to eat, woof, woof, woof baby.Plus, in partnership with our headline sponsor MYER we serve up another mouth watering ‘Match Fit’ segment and this time it comes with undertones of capital chic, parliamentary poise and world leader wonderment. So get comfy in the backbench and play nicely with your ballot box as we crawl deep inside your cabinet. This time we cross the floor and knock down the ACT’s door, it’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.Timecodes:00:00 - Start of the show and surprise explanation 03:00 - Gits’ arrival04:20 - Welcome Gits to the show 09:23 - MYER Sponsorship plug10:10 - Weekend recap13:58 - The KOKO Olympics Wrap27:35 - Introduce Ben Alexander25:00 - Story about Ben Alexander punching Swoop37:02 - Ben Alexander’s take on the current Wallabies38:12 - WALLABIES V SPRINGBOKS PREVIEW41:51 - Who would be Ben Alexander’s starting front row45:56 - Post match reaction show plug after Wallabies v Springboks47:00 - Other rugby news 49:25 - ALL BLACKS V ARGENTINA PREVIEW58:50 - ‘Match Fit’ brought to you by MYER01:06:56 - Ben Alexander’s charity work 01:11:14 - The King of Canberra KOKO Quiz01:19:48 - Website and socials plug 01:20:28 - Two live shows are announced01:21:34 - Hugo gets up and sings01:24:28 - What is Gits doing next in his career?01:27:47 - Close of the showBig thanks to MYER for their support and remember you can buy everything you saw on the show from you local MYER or online - https://www.myer.com.auBUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE RIGHT NOW - 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.
