God, here we go again. How dare the agency not spend months researching their idea globally for the last century to make sure it hadn't ever, ever, been hinted at anywhere at any time. How dare they.

They didn't have to research globally, just in this region. One would think the NZRU would be aware of what's happening with the Waratahs. And TBWA\Whybin should know what Aussie agencies are up to (particularly a major creative agency like Saatchi), especially as that campaign had been publicised.

So you're saying that "publicising" it is that one website you've dug up? Did you find it anywhere else you little ad sleuth you? Anyway, who want's Warratah sweat?

Same idea, same sport, same region.
Same old story.
11:48 am NZST
Same old sour grapes

It may not be the job of the agency to 'research every part of the globe', but surely it is a responsibility of apparently well informed judges of any award show worth its salt?

How come the ad didnt win at Canne if it was so good? Or anywhere? Surely if it is 'the same idea' it should have won

pretty simple. the aussie one was shyte. therefore no one noticed it. the all blacks one was the real deal. and it rocked. therefore everyone noticed it. end of story.

11.04 - everyone noticed it apart from the general public in NZ. There again they weren't the real target audience.

How dare a bunch of Kiwi ad people not notice what is happening in local Australian rugby.
