Former AFL greats Matthew and Alan Richardson are the stars of a new Andrology Australia community service announcement created by Wilson Everard joint Creative Directors Justin Groves and Jeremy Wynne.
The 'Talk about your tackle" campaign, aims to help all Australian men understand the risks of ignoring issues with "the bits below the belt".
"The problem is that men don't like to talk about problems with their tackle," said Wynne. "And by the time they do, it can often be too late to do anything about it," added Groves.
The 45 second spot, titled 'Nothing', highlights the awkward and uncomfortable silences between men when it comes to discussing important issues like reproductive health.
Reproductive health issues can also be an early warning sign for more serious health problems, so the spot urges men to "talk about their tackle" and to visit the Andrology Australia micro-site talkaboutyourtackle.org.
Focus testing of the campaign showed that the simplicity of the message and the realistic awkwardness of the scene resonated strongly with the target audience.
"Matthew and Alan are a father and son team that command a lot of respect in male circles, so they were a perfect fit for the commercial" said Account Director Natalie Kuss.
