This week on The KOKO Show we are joined in studio by a follically fabulous fly-half, he is a bronzed bombshell from Bondi who should probably be on tour with the Wallabies right now, but what the hell do we know! It is of course the one and only Mr Ben Donaldson. With Benny Boy riding shotgun the lads get candid with their concerns, as they dissect the Wallabies’ record breaking loss to a Mack Hansen powered Irish side in Dublin. The loss to Ireland is one thing for the Wallabies, but the lads appeared to be more shocked by the manner and style in which the Aussies got annihilated in the Emerald Isle. The boys get stuck into a road map of why the Wallabies find themselves in this situation and then they propose some possible ways in which we can right this ship, post the Joe Schmidt era. However, it is not all doom and gloom on the KOKO show as we highlight some of the other games from over the weekend, results that saw England beat the All Blacks in style, Scotland blow a big lead against Argentina and the Springboks beat Italy with only 14 men, AGAIN! As the international year comes to a close, we round the bend with only one week remaining in the Spring Tour and for the Wallabies it is all about leaving a mark against France, drawing a line in the sand that says “the slide stops here”. The KOKO Crew gives you all their predictions heading into round four of the tour, airing a few spicy upsets in the process and telling you who are the dead set locks. To finish the show we step away from the privately educated world of these ra ra raggamuffins to answer a listener question that shows a more human side to the lads - “what is your guilty pleasure no one knows about?’ - let’s just say the answers will knock your cashmere socks off. So sit back, relax, draw yourself a nice long bath and eat a tub of crunchy peanut butter with a spoon. This all new episode of Kick Offs and Kicks Ons is one hell of a therapy session!
