This week on The KOKO Show we set the scene for round five of the TRC, bigging up all things Bledisloe Cup and how the Wallabies can leave a hypothetical bag of flaming Schmidt on the All Black's doorstep. Despite the Trans-Tasman tussle being the centerpiece this weekend, we also give the Argentina v South Africa title race match a little love, debating whether the prancing Pumas have what it takes at home to pull down some silky Springbok slacks.In order to enhance all this glorious rugby chat we have enlisted the help of one of the greatest Kiwis to ever do it. He might be small in stature but boy was he big in the ‘pain in the arse' department, he is the puny punisher from Palmerston North and the Herculean halfback who broke Aussie hearts for fun. Please welcome our favourite little deep fried delicacy Mr Aaron ‘Nuggy' Smith. On the show, Nuggy breaks down what it's like watching the All Blacks from afar, how he sees the Bledisloe Cup panning out and lifts the lid on the terrifying fact that his International playing days might not be over.With all this manic footy preparation surrounding the KOKO Crew we spare a little time to show MYER our major sponsor some love with a perfectly curated, elegantly electric and decadently drenched mixed bag ‘Match Fit.

This week on the show, we're all back in the same room to discuss the Black Caps' demoralising loss to Australia at the Basin Reserve, as well as a preview/review of the 4th and 5th Tests between India and England.We start the episode with some initial thoughts from the Kiwi contingent about the pain of another Test loss to Australia - a game where New Zealand showed signs they could compete on days 1 and 3, but crumbled on the even days on their way to a very familiar scoreline against their Trans-Tasman neighbours.There's plenty of praise for Cameron Green and Nathan Lyon, as well as Matt Henry and Glenn Phillips who provided the positives from a New Zealand point of view. We also discuss the make up of a Black Caps bowling attack in transition, a seemingly indestructible quartet of Australian bowlers, the impact of injuries and the form of Marnus Labuschagne and Alex Carey.In the second half of the show, we look back at the 4th Test between India and England, which saw India secure a series victory in Ranchi. Was it a missed opportunity for England? Or do India deserve all the credit for winning the biggest moments of this series.We touch on crucial performances from Dhruv Jurel and Shubman Gill, highlighting their composure under huge pressure. Joe Root's hundred demonstrated his class, but India's spin trio of Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin and Kuldeep Yadav made life difficult for England in the third innings and turned the match back India's way.Finally, we preview the 5th Test in Dharamasala - potentially the hundredth for Jonny Bairstow and Ravi Ashwin - with an eye to conditions and how England may look back on this series when all is said and done.We'll be down at Hagley Oval in a few days' time at the second Test between the Black Caps and Australia, so expect plenty of content from that match and also the final India v England Test.

An Australian tourism group is pushing for trans-Tasman border rules to be loosened to make travel between Australia and New Zealand quicker and easier. Tourism & Transport Forum Australia says major reform is necessary, and is looking to new technology to achieve it - think digital arrival cards and facial recognition technology. The idea has support from above, with Prime Ministers Chris Hipkins and Anthony Albanese agreeing to create a joint taskforce to work on creating a more seamless border. So what could be in the pipeline... and could we soon be ditching our passports when we fly to Australia? Susie finds out from Margy Osmond, the chief executive of the Tourism & Transport Forum.

A razor box carried by an Australian soldier at Gallipoli has been unearthed as a treasure of Australian football. In 1923 it formed the centrepiece of a specially created wooden trophy carved out of New Zealand honeysuckle and Australian maple, created to mark the first match between the two countries on Australian soil. But instead of becoming football's version of cricket's Ashes, the trophy went missing in 1954 and has only come to light this year. The razor box originally belonged to Private William Fisher who was the Queensland Football Association Secretary. Channel 10 football commentator Simon Hill speaks to John Baldock about the significance of the trophy.
The trans-Tasman bond was reinforced in Anzac commemorations yesterday.

Some commentators also believe the deal will give Australia the upper hand in geo-political negotiations. Hipkins spoke to Corin Dann on the debates.
