THEY may have missed out on a place in this year's World Club Challenge, but Warrington Wolves still made their voices heard.
As Wigan Warriors – the side who beat them in last year's Super League Grand Final – took on NRL premiers Sydney Roosters, The Wire came up with another piece of creative marketing to try and hijack their neighbours' big night.
A van promoting the clash between Wolves and the Warriors on March 15 was driven around the DW Stadium before kick off featuring the slogan "They're only Roosters...just wait until you face the Wolves."
Some fans were happy...
Brilliant from @wolvesrl 👏 https://t.co/eEevinYaLz

Whoever is doing the marketing at @wolvesrl this year needs a payrise. Some great stuff already!

But a few were not...
Awful advert like pie smash

This would be funny if we didn’t lose every grand final to them

This could backfire spectacularly

What do you make of this bit of advertising?
