Sportsbet welcomes the All Blacks ahead of the Bledisloe Cup in new campaign via Naked Sydney
Sportsbet and Naked have enlisted the help of over five hundred sheep to send the All Blacks a special message, celebrating their arrival in Australia for the Bledisloe Cup.
With the help of Shepherdstown farmer Brian Burke and 360kg of strategically placed oats, the surprisingly literate sheep definitely got the message across.
Says Will Byrne, communications manager, Sportsbet: “We want to give the All Black’s a proper Aussie welcome ahead of the Bledisloe, one they could relate to anyway! We’ve never been sheepish about having a bit of cheeky fun.
Adds Jon Burden, ECD, Naked: “Ewe can’t beat a bit of banter.”

Jesus. Are we really still doing the sheep jokes? Even when we’ve been utterly trounced by the All Blacks for 14 years straight? I understand singing when your winning but by this rationale, we should shut the fuck up and show a little humility.
It’s Sportsbet.
Wow, does creativity just not exist at Naked? Talk about beating the horse, I hope they didn’t charge $$ for this. Embarrassing.
Relax, it’s not made out to be more than it is. Win or loose, it’s Aussie nature to get stuck in and lead the banter. We’ll flog the sheep shaggers.
Hey Bro, we need all we can get to get under their skins.You can stick your humility and I’ll have one before ewe!
