Benji Marshall stars in Air New Zealand ads highlighting sponsorship of Auckland Nines

Air New Zealand has recruited NRL star Benji Marshall for a series of videos promoting its sponsorship of the 2015 Auckland Nines rugby league tournament, with Marshall taking on the role of coach to a weedy tourist called Jeff.

The videos, created by Host Sydney, see Marshall “training” Jeff through a variety of tourist activities around Auckland to get ready for the tournament, promoting a competition to win a long weekend away in the city with winners able to chose one of the experiences in the videos as part of their prize.
