Much better than the leg-waxing ad we had this time last year...

Why did they not use the best player in the world for the advert rather then some petulant pie eater?

Excellent .
Lets have more Sporting heroes promoting our great game, and at the same time pushing our great players into the national consciousness.

Best advert I have seen for the game in a long time! Like people have said we don't need loads of shoulder charges and big hits in every adverrt. I think during last year on an advert we had a tackle on there which resulted in a red card.
I don't think you'd see the FA showing a tackle that got someone a red card on there adverts. Could be wrong

They're different campaigns.
The Sky ad is to promote their coverage of the upcoming SL season and I think it does a good job; two of their big sporting brands alongside one another, with no northern stereotypes or the usual big hit montage set to a soft rock soundtrack. I wonder if they'll follow it up with ad's featuring other celebrity fans of the TGG?
The Rugby League of the Extraordinary campaign was an RFL initiative to promote the product itself - I thought that was very well done too and I hope they follow it up with more of the same.

Well put: I hope they persist with 'the Rugby League of the Extraordinary' for a long time to come because I think it's a very workable template to vary upon. The best advertising campaigns are the ones that evolve over time from a good premise and I hope that this is ours.
On the Wiggins one, I found it really well done, well timed and an interesting departure from the norm of not-so-great highlight packages put together a bit too quickly.
I hope the trend of improving advertising (at least centrally) continues! |

I think it's alright. I love the fact that Wiggins is in it but I'd personally have enjoyed seeing some clips at the end. I seem to be in the minority on this one though.
I still think it'd be great (for RL certainly) if they could get Sinfield and Wayne Rooney in some sort of advert or media event. Rooney is a Rhinos fan. If they could get them together, you could have Sinfield take some free-kicks and Rooney kick some conversions.

Union did the same I think with Wilkinson and Beckham? Good idea though. I hope this isn't a one off |

The struggle with that is that most celebrities dont have a contract with Sky. But i see your premise,
a goalkeeper talking about diving on the ball in a crowded box, then showing a RL fullback diving on a kick and being tackled on the ground..
if there was an F1 parallel to be found, that would be full of potential,
im sure Sky have other link ups that could be used going forward. |

Yep, as mentioned above the Sinfield-Rooney thing would be great. As for F1, isn't Mark Webber an RL fan? |
