In an unofficial official press conference today, former Richmond coach Danny Frawley declared he will be running for the position of Labor leader which was recently vacated Mark Latham.
When questioned about his reasoning in applying for the Job, Frawley stated “Look yeah nah, opportunities have been a little lean since leaving Richmond and I’m a sucker for lost causes so I though I’d jump on the front foot, pull out the big guns, have a red hot go and hopefully everything will be cherry ripe.”
He was then questioned as to whether he has the experience to carry out Labor’s top job and he said “Look yeah nah, after coaching Richmond for four years I got a pretty thick skin from all the verbal abuse I copped so question time should be a piece of cake compared to walking up the race after a loss. I’m also very media savvy which should put me in good stead.” He then added..”If you look at Labor at the moment, you will see many parallel’s between how they are currently running and my tenure at Richmond so I feel I’ve got what takes to handle the political round trip from rock bottom to the dizzy heights of mediocrity and back again.”
We then asked him about the policies he plans to put forward should he be successful in his bid and he explained…”I have very definite policies that I am going to run with such as…Tax breaks for Potato Farmers, a review of unfair dismissal rules in sport and I plan to outlaw spitting in public.”
Ultimately this column publicly endorses Frawley’s ticket as we feel that since most politicians spout clichéd verbal diahorrea that very rarely makes any sense, he should be perfect for the job.
