Anton brings to life the special relationship the Stormers have with their fans in his epic new spot for Bananas and Sunny-Futures.

True to the campaign’s rallying cry, “In it together”, the commercial itself became a team effort – made side-by-side with real Stormers supporters who pitched in on everything from filming, crewing, post-production and starring on screen. The result is more than an ad; it’s a love letter from the fans to the team, showing that when the Stormers take the field, the whole community runs out with them.
