About this episode

The KOKO Show explores Perth's attractions and features interviews with rugby legends Alicia Lucas and Michael Hooper.

This week on the KOKO Show the lads are over in the Golden West all thanks to Tourism Western Australia, sampling everything that Perth has to offer from its natural beauty, to the food and all its groundbreaking entertainment. In this episode the boys glowingly recount their time at Rottnest Island, their dinner and tour at Gage Roads Brewery, climbing Optus Stadium and all the action from the HSBC SVNS at HBF Park. Plus, the fellas do a full rugby round up as they preview week one of the Super Rugby Pacific with their tips, tricks and everything in between, as well as a full recap of round one in the Guinness Six Nations for all our NHL’s. In the Second half of the episode brought to you by HSBC we are joined by two legitimate Aussie greats Alicia Lucas and Michael Hooper to talk all things HSBC, SVNS and the Global Rugby Player Foundation. With our two red polo clad legends in tow the KOKO show takes a turn as we delve into the world of life after rugby, Swoop’s Temu addiction and just how excited everyone is about the 2027 Rugby World Cup.  So buckle up your chin straps and remember to slip, slop, slap, slurp and slide; this episode is an absolute scorcher in the wild…
