A bit of fun....(hopefully)

This is an amazing Nike ad that I don't think ever that got to the screen and was ultimately banned in UK in 2003....apart from Laurence ...how many famous names from the era can you spot...there's one surprise that imho shows you the estimeem he was held in at the time....

Bit too fuzzy to see all but I did recognise the 'surprise'! Great advert

This is slightly better quality....and the director does momentarily slow over the 'names'

1min 15 secs into the clip - great cameo appearance from Rupert Harden

Excellent.

That switch move on the crossroads is a thing of beauty.

Is that our very own James Simpson-Daniel at 37-38 seconds running infront of the bus?

Couldn't identify anyone else. Too old for me.

From Googgle....it includes Wallaby Tim Horan, Ireland’s Keith Wood, France’s Fabien Galthie, England’s Lawrence Dallaglio, Dan Luger, James Simpson-Daniel and Fijian Rupeni Caucaunibuca.

Nike and others saw JSD at that point to be the next big thing. the England incumbent winger for years to come. but as we now know bad luck, injuries and illness meant he never really had the stellar international career his skill deserved
