Let the games begin: Victorian Liberals fail at sport but surprise with teamwork in viral video

The Victorian Liberal Party released a group video showing current and former MPs in a ‘Games that Victoria never hosted’ montage.
The video features Victoria’s Liberal leader and former leaders alongside new MPs to show party unity ahead of the state election.
Analysts say the video aims to project unity and energy, while acknowledging potential risks of overdoing it.
The video sparked discussion about messaging, with some Labor sources calling it petty politics but acknowledging its broad reach.
The clip includes a scene of politicians performing in swimwear, a move noted as part of a broader political media tradition.
The video was produced by Wilson’s team to mirror popular Instagram reel formats and engage voters.
Commentators say the video signals a united front, though some question its long-term political impact.
The video references the cancelled Commonwealth Games and uses it to frame a narrative about party unity.
The Guardian notes the campaign’s broader context, including inquiries into the 2023 Games and political strategy ahead of elections.
The video features a mix of politicians performing symbolic events like high jump and pool stunts to convey energy.
