‘I knew… I had made it across the line. Made it to the holy land.’
Never before has a try at the RDS been described with more florid conviction than Ian Madigan, and his cohorts, in Leinster Rugby’s sweeping promo for their 2015/16 season tickets.
Rather than just blodge out a soft-rock video with slow motion hits, nifty handling, Johnny Sexton popping in a gum-shield and a flashing ‘?’ sign over Isa Nacewa’s smiling face, Leinster recruited a top-notch production company to make the big sell.
Social media users and rugby fans [although they are often one in the same] have had their say on the spectacle. Here are some of the best reactions.
