Chris Masoe Joins KOKO to Toughen Up Our Timid Little Team

This week on The KOKO Show we are joined by one of the hardest men in All Blacks history. A blinding back-rower that made a living snapping necks, cashing cheques and hoisting silverware. It is of course the Manawatu Monster and still the middleweight champion of all of our hearts, it is the one and only Mr Chris Masoe. With Masi in tow the lads discuss the 2026 Hurricanes and how they will go about getting the choccies this weekend against the Chiefs in the Super Rugby Final. They also yarn about the best back-row Masi ever played with, their time in Toulon together and what it was like going from professional rugby to professional boxing. Plus, Goit has a little fun with Masi about how after 10 years of living in France, his French never got better and his English actually got worse.

In the second half of the show the boys break a box of Australian Rugby collectors cards all thanks to TGI, we also debut a new segment called ‘Swopp Will Sort It’ and the lads do a full run of all the footy action coming out of the Northern Hemisphere. Finally, the boys chat about their upcoming Wallabies House Live Show on the 4th of July and Drew goes on a true spiritual journey about his absolute love for sport. So sit back, relax, whip out a kebab and really enjoy the highlights of the mighty Socceroos feeding Turkiye at the FIFA World Cup. It is time now for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons. KOKO is life!
