This week on The KOKO Show we take a long hard look at round five of The Rugby Championship, a weekend that saw the giddy guys of gold push the All Blacks to the edge in Bledisloe one, as well as the World Champion blazing Boks getting pantsed by the prideful Pumas in a one point thriller. These games are broken down and picked apart by the KOKO Crew as if they were vultures on a sun baked Kudu carcass lying in the middle of the Serengeti.To help us through this delectable feast of footy filled fabulousness, we have called in the big guns. This fella is one of New Zealand's favourite and somewhat forgotten sons, In 2011 he was the first-five that went from whitebait fishing to World Cup winning. So, please put your hands together for the wholesome hairy Beaver, the Waikato Wizard and the only man to ooze sexy with the middle name Rexy, Mr Stephen Donald. In this week's episode Beaver takes across the ditch to see what the classy Kiwis are saying about their side's sub-par performance over the weekend, whilst also lifting the lid on what appears to be the start of a footy fuelled national crisis in New Zealand.With all this sporting sensationalism hooked straight to our veins, the boys felt it was pertinent to spend a little time to show MYER our major sponsor some love with a perfectly fierce, flashy and spectacularly ‘sigma' mixed bag ‘Match Fit. Plus, we go around again with our meaty mates from BeefEater, serving up some serious ‘Super Sizzlers' and the lads issue a big thanks to our purveyor of mothers milk Easy Times Beer Co for quenching the needs of four thirsty men.On top of all this we roll out a couple of fan fables on the ‘Dear Drew' hotline and we bring back a juicy ‘Northern Hemisphere Legends' as the top-halfers go ham for footy once again.

With the Rugby World Cup in France fast approaching, two former All Blacks took it upon themselves to give kiwis a taste of what the host country has to offer. ‘Izzy and Beaver's French Connection' follows Israel Dagg and Stephen Donald on an action-packed tour through France, taking in the sights and scenery, meeting new people, and, of course, causing a bit of mischief. The French have a bit of a reputation when it comes to tourists, English-speaking tourists in particular. However, Dagg and Donald told Newstalk ZB's Mike Hosking that as soon as they found out that they were Kiwis they were perfectly welcoming. “If they think you've got any resemblance with England they don't want a bar of ya,” Dagg told Hosking. “But as soon as you tell them you're from New Zealand, they jump straight into the All Blacks chat.” Throughout the show, Dagg's love of food, wine, and culture is on display, while Donald indulges his love of history, taking the lead on planning, though not on driving. “I was driving,” Dagg joked with the Newstalk ZB host. “I was driving and he would sleep the whole time.” While the pair visited all sorts of places on their trip, they developed a fondness for the little pieces of history. The pair visited Pont du Gard, the Roman aqueduct in Nîmes, and the Sénanque Abbey in Gordes. “It's the places we never would've gone to,” Stephen said. “They blew our minds.” But even if you take the boys out of New Zealand, you can't take New Zealand out of the boys, and Saint-Tropez was a favourite as well. “Once we hit the coastline? It was awesome,” Donald told Mike Hosking. France is known for its cheese and wine, and according to the pair, it lived up to the hype: “we came back about 28 kilos heavier than we left,” Dagg joked with Hosking. And as for the World Cup itself, both boys are backing the All Blacks, despite their disastrous showing against South Africa. “I feel like it was a mindset thing, they were on different spectrums.” Dagg said of the South Africa loss. “Dump that one and move on,” Donald agreed. Another thing they agreed on was Ireland, giving them “no chance.” “I know people are saying they're ranked number one in the world, but I think World Cups are different.” Where they disagreed was the final - Dagg's betting on the All Blacks and France battling it out again, “like in 2011.” But Donald thinks it'll be South Africa taking on the All Blacks. “The South African-All Black final hasn't happened for a while. I reckon we're long overdue it,” he told Newstalk ZB. ‘Izzy and Beaver's French Connection' premieres Sunday 10th of September at 6:30pm on Bravo.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
