Now what the hell is this all about? Too many questions. Is Pavlich throwing out the rules of banking? Is he endorsing the rules of banking? It looks like he needs glasses, so maybe he has to hold the rules of banking at a distance to read them? Or throw them out? Shouldn’t he be at least kicking the book that is the rules of banking? How does a squinting South Australian holding an old book illustrate the point of thinking differently about banking? Why is the book so old if you’re to think differently. Who is responsible for this shambles of an ad?
Also, on another topic, I loved Shane Wright Economics Editor in yesterday’s West, (which I picked up in the Quokka Arms while waiting for the ferry),opining that sending money to the bush was a total waste, country people were ignorant and uninnovative, and that the cities are where it’s at for everything except yokel wearing bumpkinism. Bravo.
Surely they are innovative in whingeing though Shane?

Yes, exactly and he also brings all the baggage of being a Docker, unaustralianness, a culture of losing and incompetence, the smell of fish on your fingers…Why bring all that to banking?

This is part of a series. I believe in the next billboard (a few k’s down the road), Pavlich makes the book ignite using the power of his lazy (slightly confused) stare. Think differently, man.

does Pav go on to crack the book in two using his forehead, kung fu style?

I believe the television version of the add indeed features kicking of the rules of Banking. Through a plate glass window indeed. The current relative success of the two teams has lead to a preponderance of adds featuring the talent of teh Pav or Aaron Sandilands which have me, notionally, leaping to my feet and calling: Come back Karl! All is forgiven…
What’s with the sudden deluge of Docker bashing anyway? Is it because Docker fans are notoriously thin skinned and while they are on top seems like a good time to draw them out? (Or is it, sotto voce, actual West Coke Eagle driven bitterness? I can’t believe it.)
Damn it, why is Cookster never around to lead with his chin on your behalf when you need him

I don’t like te West Coast Wine Coolers either, but at least they don’t display the pure unaustralianness of the Dockers. I’ve got nothing against Richmond, Melbourne or Saints, the rest I like to see lose, unless they play Dockers.

Yes yes I know, but most of the examples of Glen Jackovich’s work would be a bit obscure for your average TWOPper. The West Coast Poly adds must be nearly 15 years old and still running, unfortunately (depending on your point of view) only available in regional areas.

Yeah banks use ye old book of banking specifying their capital requirements , reserve requirements and corporate governance. We don’t bother with shit like that. We get footie players in to run half arsed ads. And anyway Barbra works for the big banks.
