Sportsbet previews the NRL season with ‘NRL The Board Game’

Sportsbet has previewed this year’s season of the NRL with rugby fans partaking in some board games.

Packed with references to the recent performances of players and NRL teams, such as the Cowboys and Bulldogs battling it out in a never ending game of ‘Four-in-a-row’, and a Dragons fan losing in ‘Guess who’s leaving’, the video seeks to help league fans enter the new year in good humour.

The two minute film, ‘NRL The Board Game’, will appear on Nine and Fox League during the broadcast of upcoming NRL games. It will also appear on the NRL and Sportsbet’s social channels.

“Come the eve of the season, punters are always on the lookout for the annual Sportsbet NRL video,” said Sportsbet’s Rich Hummerston.

“We don’t hold back in assessing each team’s pre-season chances but every club gets a fair whack and as always, it’s all in good fun.”

The NRL season launched last night to 463,000 metro viewers on Nine.

The film was created by production company Sherpa.
