The Adelaide Crows will feature in a new Toyota television commercial in July.​

Adelaide’s squad, including coach Neil Craig, took part in the filming at AAMI Stadium on Wednesday night.​

The Crows team has not been in a Toyota commercial since 1992.​

“Toyota has been with us since day one and they’re as important to the club as anyone,” Crows commercial operations general manager Phil Harper said. “They’re having a real go at becoming number one in South Australia and the players are really keen to help them achieve this goal.”​

The commercial will be screened throughout South Australia from July 1.​

Has anyone got the one from 1992? From memory it was pretty bad.

 

[RoosterLad]

This one will probably be shocking too, most commercials which involve sport stars are pretty average.

Looks cool

I would cry if Roo hurt his back during "Oh what a feeling!"

Shoot that person immediately and bury quietly.

As a major sponsor it surprises me there havent been more. Will this be national or just local?

Knighta and Craigy are friggin loving it!

Is that Dogga second from the left? He seems pretty keen, as does Macca (extreme right).

 

[Southerntakeover]

Neil Craig doesnt leave the ground for anyone.

 

[Gets!]

hahaha how funny does Knighta look.

How long will it be before Toots uses that picture to suggest that now both our training and playing grounds are carparks?

There's an ad in Victoria at the moment with Xavier Clarke and Fraser Gehrig advertising the Saints' alliance with the Sacred Heart Mission. Looks pretty amateurish, like it was filmed on a home camcorder. Xavier basically mumbles through his lines before Frase says "Go the Hearts!" at the end.

Hopefully the Crows one is nowhere near as bad (you'd think Toyota have more money than a non-profit organisation ), you'd assume it would only be seen in Adelaide.

Is it Shirley next to Knights?

Is it Shirley next to Knights?

Yep.

Knighta is absolutely loving it!

That made me laugh very loudly. Good show.

I'm sure the workers at Holden's Elizabeth plant, and Mitsubishi's plant at Tonsley Park will be thrilled that the "pride of South Australia" is helping to make their jobs secure.

I reckon the one in yellow is Craigy.

I thought you were the one in yellow?

 

[n4sir]

Looks cool

So does this mean that MMM will finally stop their stupid "Neil Craig show us a smile" campaign?

Once again Port supporters cant discern between heritage , history and re-badging

Toyotas , when the Crows entered , were re-badged Commodores from the Elizabeth plant. So we did support a great SA company. We also left the opportunity open for our poor cousins from the Docks to initiate discussions between GMH and/or Mitsubishi...but it seems you went for an interstate phone company.

Perhaps when they pour money into a local AFL side, no matter which one, then Ill except your comments. That's exactly why Toyota is now numero uno car manufacturing company on the planet.

Until then buzz off.

Which of his comments are you not excepting? I like some of his, accept the ones that bag the crows.
