A tradie with a simply glorious mullet whom Scott Morrison met on the campaign trail has recorded an online ad for the Liberal Party.

The Prime Minister was taken aback by Bridgenorth Football Club player Jarrad Cirkel’s long, luscious locks when he was campaigning in Launceston, Tasmania, a week ago, and struck a rapport.

Now Mr Cirkel has appeared an online ad being shared on social media, where the blackout does not apply. After making at dig at Mr Morrison’s own hairstyle, he goes on to praise the PM and urge voters to “stick with him.”

“I thought he (Mr Morrison) was a top fella,” Mr Cirkel says in the ad.

“He’s a very genuine sort of fella; good, decent family man … I think we should stick with him.

“I’m happy backing ScoMo on May 18.”
