New SANFL ad

[Brucetiki]

Just saw the new SANFL television ad, and must admit I'm very disappointed with it.

Very tacky, and along the lines of the infamous Tim Shaw ads from a few years ago. Also a few slight exaggerations (why pay $90?) as well.

Bring back last year's ad - that was brilliant.

It's on youtube. Pretty uninspiring.

Found that one on youtube as well, hadn't seen it before. Yup, it's fantastic. Nothing wrong with running the same campaign I would've thought.

On the new ad the concept is ok, BUT the delivery is terrible.
Was it just me or was there a fair chunk of the add showing highlights with Central in it. Not that im complaining also come to think about it i don't recall seeing South or West in there.

Agree last years theme was better. I guess their message is directed at getting kids back to the footy off the couch. The $90 would be referring to what it costs for an computer game. My nephew paid $99 for one Xbox game.

Terrible ad.

I actually didn't think it was too bad, certainly better than the Tim Shaw days

I agree. Snout's Hill was a bit down on numbers though

Must have used footage from after the GF then...

Agreed. Not appalling but uninspired and uninspiring. Vision of people queueing to buy food - that'll get the masses excited.

Never fear the Snouts were there.....

Ah, I thought they were referring to paying $90 for an AFL ticket, which is a slight exaggeration (bar prelim/grand finals).

Agreed not as good as last year, to save costs they could've just re-edited the vision from last year and done the same campaign.

However I don't think it is that bad either. The good in it outweighs the bad.

Agree 100%, show the marks, bumps, flukey goals not the food lines. Last years was much better.

Wouldn't be an easy task ... I guess their thinking would be to not play too heavily on those aspects that are going to get us hardcore supporters back, as we already attend regularly.

The play on value both monetary and having your kids involved outdoors as opposed to on the Playstation is a good one, and for the older folk who have left the comp, it mixed in a bit of footy with the other grassroots benefits you don't get at AFL games.

Really begs the question though (and I know we've discussed this before), seriously, what were they thinking in "cheesing" the ads up those years back when Shaw was involved?!?!

I think the new ad is ok

You are still part of the league - there's no excuse not to have certain teams in an advert promoting the League.
