And start the overly predictable CB praise for Clems Melb, and scorn for Clems Sydney.

Clems Melb is a great agency. They are committed to being the best and have the talent to deliver on it. They are deserved winners.

Clems Sydney won out over The Monkeys.

Nope, no nepotism at work there. No sirreeeeee bob!

I think Adnews may have over compensated for the Patts decision last year. Ok Melb but Sydney. There are so many agencies better. D5, Monkeys, Host, BMF, Leo Burnett to name just a few.

Well done peeps, you'd be nothing without George from despatch though. He's the glue that holds the place together.

@curious:
Where's the work? Virgin relaunch campaign is nice, yep. Tick. Hungry jacks bunnies is okay but it's not even close to the standard of Crispin's stuff 5 years ago. And aside from that? Hmmm. So two pieces of work.
-DDB did a couple of exceptional VW ads.
-Leo Burnett's work on Diageo was way classier.
-Mojo (when Micah was running it) pulled out super dry, that man ad for speights in NZ, coke burn and even 'Ian's getting ready'.

That's just off the top of my head. As for best submission wins? Can we please have some judges that can't be talked into believing work that is average is actually incredibly good.

I wonder if AdNews realise that this will only diminish thier own awards cred. Clems Melb deserve the win. Clems Syd doesnt.
