Brief:
Appealing to established rugby fans and those who only tend to
watch the big games, this campaign needed to build on the interest that had
been generated by the World Cup. The super-human qualities of world class
rugby players lends itself to comparison with great warriors, as well as
being perfect for grand movie-style promotions. The TV campaign was a direct
tribute to the trailer for "300" and we worked closely with marketing agency
RKCR/Y&R to mirror this in the radio.
