Rory & Rooney Nike TV spot

Looks like it was filmed at Mottram Hall in Cheshire. That's about five min's away from where Rooney lives.
 
thought it was poor compared to earlier ones



edit: thought i should expand, we had the 'shootout' ad with Tiger & Rory earlier this year which i enjoyed and I don't think changing one ball to a football adds anything to make this version worthy of any positive comment

It's fat Ronaldo!

Good ad, bit OTT with some of the swing noises (in particular the sound of his first iron shot?!) but great idea to tie in with a footballer to try and get more kids interested.

agreed!

didnt even know who the 'fat lad' was until jimbob said.........:mmm:
 
I like how innovative Nike have previously been when blending sports like tennis, footie & golf etc into their ads, just thought this one is a bit too recycled rather than something new

(saw the thinner Ronaldo when I watched 'Mike Bassett' the other night, will need to remember and watch it again before next summers finals, great film....... Ladies and gentlemen, England will be playing Four-Four-Infraction-Two... class :clap: )

Except that it's actually a football ad, starring a golfer - not the other way round ;)

Didn't know that:eek: watched with no sound plus posted by the editor of Golf Monthly I assumed it was golf.

You know what they say about assumptions:whistle:
