Will 'Feel It!' Become 'Simply The Best'? Post by: Triple M NRL 6 March, 2009 - 3:43 PM

Feel It!

That's the official marketing slogan for the 2009 NRL season, and Wes Carr's Feels Like Woah is the official anthem.

The advertising campaign pays homage to grassroots footy and features two young boys playing in the park and transforming into Manly's Brett Stewart and Melbourne's Greg Inglis. Giant light towers and grandstands emerge from the ground and said park turns into a fully fledged stadium.

The NRL's head of marketing Paul Kind says the campaign aims to remind people that rugby league is a part of their lives and kids playing like their heroes.

What do you reckon? Does it get you pumped up about the new footy season?

Is it Simply The Best?

    History never repeats! The NRL campaign with Tina Turner is undoubtedly "SIMPLY THE BEST"
    ever and no-one will ever come close to it - no matter who or what song is sung to promote it!!! The sooner the NRL realise they need to do it again - the better!!!!!!
