As far as Former Prime Minister Uncle Tony is concerned, Sydney Rooster superstar Latrell Mitchell is basically his own mob.
This revelation comes as the Member For Warringah is forced to pick a side ahead of this weekend’s NRL Grand Final, after his beloved South Sydney Rabbitohs were knocked out in last Saturday’s preliminary final.
Uncle Tony X says while it hurts to throw his support behind the Rabbitoh’s most famous rivals, he can’t really look past how deadly Latrell’s season has been.
“I used to support the Storm when they had Greggy. But now I gotta support my cousin Latrell.” he said, in a new spree of media appearances that has many of his Liberal Party colleagues feeling as though he’s taking his new pity role as Special Envoy to Indigenous Affairs a bit too seriously.
It is believed that has Uncle Tony started exaggerating his family ties to the Sydney Rooster’s centre, especially when talking to the kids.
In fact, he’s gone and told all the nephews that they’re all related to Latrell – possibly untrue claims that the kids will now spend the rest of their lives defending.
“That’s our mob” he told the jarjums.
“Gone then ask your nan. Through his father”
At time of press Uncle Tony X was seen teaching the young ones how to do Latrell’s kangaroo post try celebration.
