I guess you missed pretty much the most successful ad campaigns in the history of rugby league then?

Everyone goes on about Simply the Best, but I've always thought the "What you get is what you see" ad was so much better. Something there for all demographics IMO.

Like i've said all day, I think the ad is great but perhaps they could of picked a song that was a bit more exciting and pumped you up more.

Problem was there was no power in the voice. And it wasn't really edited to flow with the music. Flo Rida, Avicii and Christina Aguilera have all done it. And they all had power in their voice.

They should have just done the avicii version. Fun, young, everyone knows it. Avicii is a bigger name than Mauboy will ever be.
Yeah I was waiting for the "sometimes I get a good feeling" line again at the end...

But having watched it a couple of times, I do think it's a good ad. As someone already said, it makes me want to go out and kick a footy around.

The ad is awesome. Not so big on the song, but Im sure it will appeal to alot of women and children which is good.

This is a far better promo for our sport http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnNrKyg054o Maybe a little brutal for 14 year old girls though lol. On a serious note. After watching the AD a few times, I'm really coming around to it. Not really into R&B, but I think it does it's job at targeting the demographic they are after.
