"I landed at Sugar and Partners and a fantastic brief for TAB Sport
landed on my desk at the same instant." say's new ECD Damon O'Leary.
Along
with outgoing CD Tim Huse, O'Leary and creative team Dan Nelson and
Genevieve Chunn have developed the characters created in the successful
2011 RWC campaign - which saw the 'prediction chicken' correctly predict
Tony Woodcock to score the opening try in the final.
This time Tom and Ben underpin the idea that 'the weekend's for calls'.
"We wanted to make putting on a bet on the weekend's game synonomous with the buzz of the weekend." says O'Leary. "Tom and Ben are the perfect pair to remind typical kiwi's to break the shackles of the week and put a few cheeky bets on the weekend's big games."
The agency brought back Robber's Dog director Luke Shanahan, who had shot the original campaign, to bring the scripts to life.
Amongst other media, the campaign consists of 4 television spots and online - including a 'Checkin' with the Chicken' interactive banner - where the prediction chicken 'reacts' to your proposed bet.

If only we advertised gambling the way the kiwis did. We don't need to see the sport to advertise betting on it. Liked this campaign from the get go. And the girls are pretty. Thankyou.
MY BROTHER IS AN EXTRA IN THIS AD.
