Show notes
This week on The KOKO Show we are joined from the top by High School footy phenom, Brumbies goer and close friend of the show Mr Pete ‘Perfume’ Playford. With Pete in tow we cover all the news from the world of rugby, including the parting ways of the Waratahs with head Coach Dan McKellar, David Campese joining the NRL and of course we pick our Wallabies match day 23. Plus, the boys get stuck into the business side of Rugby Australia, pulling together ideas of how we can build the game back up after the Rugby World Cup. However, in episode 20 we save the best little treat for last. That is right ladies and gentlemen this week we are joined by our favourite lovable lump all the way from Wallabies Camp, this fella has been called out of retirement to serve the nation and boy is he ready and willing to do just that. Please welcome our Wallabies work horse Mr James Styvo Slipper. With Big Jimmy riding shotgun we gain some insights into the current Wallabies Camp, the excitement surrounding the Nations Champs and what Slips really gets up to in his private hotel room. Lastly, the KOKO show is proud to bring you a brand new segment called ‘How Good Is Sport’, which is all thanks to the kind people at TCL. You better bloody believe it, TCL's new SQD Mini LED TVs combine Precise Dimming, Super QLED technology and an Ultra Colour Filter to bring every sporting moment to life. So sit back, relax and throw the KOKO Show up on your new TCL TV - It’s test week baby and we're getting hot under the saddle blanket. Please enjoy an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.
