Has anyone seen the TV advert for Suzuki Vitara - starts off with Dallas Johnson, Billy and two guys.

Then Billy is driving the Suzuki looking pretty cool in his shades.
And ends with Billy and the girl  and then the girl is draped across the car.

Only started the other night - nothing on the Storm or suzuki site.
There is only one Melbourne Storm
And in Melbourne they will stay
.....forever.

What channel was it on?

Can't say I'd be likely to see it if it's on free to air as I watch very little free to air.

Cant wait to see it.
I saw Cam Smith in an add while up on the Gold coast earlier in the year. It spun me out. Its like, hey I've seen that dude before, oh yeah its camo.
Its about time the players were shown on adds here.

Hearing this I cant wait to see it. Was it a car ad or bike ad or both?
Generally speaking the current trend is to use normal people in car ads. No name Mums, Dads with kids etc, Put the focus on the product.
But having met the General Manager of Suzuki Australia, I feel he is full on passionate about the Storm and so would not be surprised to see Storm players feature in ads. Why not?
And given the latest survey about the commerical value of the storm, Mate suzuki have hit gold.
I hope they continue to sponser the Storm. Their motorbikes rip hard!

Pauliedude- it was and add for a car. Billy, Cam and Dal appear meeting up then having lunch...Billy's the main man. Must have made Nicole feel very happy (re: the girl in the add) when filming took place, she had to be 8 month pregnant when filming took place!! I dont see the need for the girl in the add.. i'd have preferred to see another Storm player but that's just me. As for the looking like they were about to kiss Super Cronk...I dont think so.
It's just a Storm in a tea-cup.

Woohoo, saw it on pay tv tonight. My other half saw it on Arena+2 (ch 150) and told me about it. Thanks to iQ she rewound it so I could see it. Can't believe I used iQ to actually watch an ad.   :lol:

I liked the ad and is a bit of fun but more importantly is something I and many others have said time and time again on here.....it's good to see our sponsors using the club in TV ad's as it just gives us more exposure and promotion FREE.

Which is better than what we get from the NRL or the Channel Swine.

The only concern I have though is will the NRL do what they did with Kearney's involvement in Ad's for Honda and say it comes under the salary cap?
