    Along the lines of "Who was here first?". The answer from Bud and Cathy were "We were".

    I don't remember seeing any other Swans player in ads that were not football related, but maybe my memory is not as good as others on this forum.
    Bud is in clothing ads too.

    Nah! It would definitely be Haighs (of Adelaide). voted the best chocolate in the world 5 times. Either that or the chocolate shop on Darling St Rozelle, Belle Freur. great chocolate but bloody expensive. you need a suitcase full of cash just for a block.

    The timing of this add was interesting. Indigenous Round. Pretty sure there was a subtle 'flavour' hinted at here, as in 'we were the first"(Australians) I like it.

    I think the thread is referring to TV ads, otherwise there would be heaps

    I liked that part too, I thought it was a clever humourous ad. To think some people thought it 'racist' was quite galling......it represents a multi cultural coming together that acknowledges the first people and everyone is happy and getting along. Nice and as it should be, even though factually it was an invasion to begin with, but hey, we're all part of it now and hopefully working towards everyone being 'happy and getting along'.

    I haven't seen anything relating to some people thinking it was 'racist', where did you see that?

    LOL. Factually? Did Captain Cook murder any Aboriginals? No.
