New AFL Promo

[Wardy]

The music indicates it might also be aimed at the Irish market!

Yeah I noticed that too - odd choice really. Whilst it was a great ad, the music seemed more suited to a night in an Irish pub rather than on the sporting field.
This year is the first in many that not only the AFL have put a load of ads on, but the Swans membership ad is getting major airtime too. Maybe they have decided to advertise more - perhaps the message finally got across that to gain exposure, one has to advertise - who'd have thought it???

The music in the ad - "I'm shipping up to Boston" by the Dropkick Murphy's has been used by the NHL and the Boston Red Sox and the NFL as 'unofficial' anthems.

While I like the song, I think if the AFL really is in a League of it's own it could have found another song that hasn't been used as an anthem by various seppo sporting leagues.


On a side note, the Dropkick Murphy's do a cover of Notre Dame's famous "Victory March" called Victory....

Ok must just be me but I think that add is @@@@! With capitals. What is with the cars? What is with the pathetic irish jiggy jig? Just showed a lot of aimless running around.
