Snickers bars are good bulking fodder for people wanting to pack on mass.

Have to agree, the forward pass is a bit of a glaring error if it is supposed to be rugby.

Actually its american football or NFL as rugby here you can’t throw forward and in football you can’t pick up the ball o_0

Us geeks demand that the possibilities be expanded to include capture the flag.

Ok: To american guys: this is an Snickers Football commercial.
And for the rest of you: this is an Snickers Rugby commercial.
Is this ok with you guys?

Many thanks NZer for clarifications. Also bobafett_12 was right about “passing forward”.

You can hear the NZ All Blacks haka in the background… At least make the players slightly Maori? Please?

Yah, this is what they pretend to do and this is the image they sell.

I hate how snickers is being advertised as an “energy” bar. It’s as if, eat this sugary candy and you will become some freaky awesome robot that can play football. (not rugby)

You may be right, but all recommended this spot as Snickers Rugby and not Snickers Football.
Good observation about “passing forward”.

Pretty sure it’s football not Rugby, they’re passing forward. Cool commercial anyway though.
