NSW Premier Mike Baird sensationally announced on Twitter today that he is set to resign from politics after a controversial two and a half years as leader of the state Liberal Party.Baird, although boosted by a taxpayer-funded superannuation for the rest of his life, will be looking for work as early as next week, and the Greenfield Post understands that his new employment may come from an unlikely source.It is rumoured that Baird will be offered an assistant coaching role at the Parramatta Eels, with the club hierarchy impressed with his ability to withstand pressure in the face of unrelenting adversity and dislike.“We just love the way Bairdy went about his business,” an Eels insider revealed to the GFP“After the season we had in 2016, we need someone at the club who understands how to stay in a job when the majority of people are calling for your head.”It’s understood that if Baird accepts the position, he will be tasked with shoring up the Eels defensive tactics before the 2017 season.“As a politician he’s already brilliant at defensive tactics and shifting the blame,” our source revealed.“And if he can lock-out a cavalcade of liquored up partygoers from entering a venue after 1am, then he sure as shit can lock-out the likes of Valentine Holmes from crossing over the try line.“We’re hoping he can help us devastate opposition teams like he has devastated Sydney’s nightlife.”

  • That's a baird idea..

  • Very baird idear
  • YAWN!!!!

  • I am just waiting for the next premier to come in and say we will have Badgery's Creek Airport operational in five years. One runway doesn't take ten years to build. So much for the Sydney 'open for business' campaigns. This isn't a personal dig only my two cents.
  • Lol classic stuff Bazza B.

    Only problems is I don't think we would have any balls or training gear as the bastard would sell them all off.

    • Errrr I thought he is getting us a new stadium from the big sell off. IMO wrong priority. We needed the dough to be spent on our hospitals.

    • hospitals for when big Frank plants that huge salmon arse on opposing players....
  • Hahahaha

  • I'm all for having Hilarly Clinton as our assistant coach
  • Oh no not crooked Hillary. At least one thing she will have the media on her side.
