Tell you what, this new ad is going to look absolutely awesome! I was at the filming and although I can not devulge what is going to happen in the ad, it is really exciting. It is going to be one of those ads you have to watch several times to take in everything on offer.
A huge production team worthy of Hollywood were on show at Leichardt Oval - Producers, Photographers, Camera Crew, Techies, Assistants, Tents, Make-up... It was all happening.
There were massive Green and Blue screens - similar to what is used on big buget movies the likes of the Matrix... Oh it is an exciting time to be a Rugby League fan!
Celebrating the Centenary of the game is going to be great and the ad is going to reflect 100 years of blood sweat joy and tears.
Got a better caption... let me know
