Disclaimer: I am unsure if the story about Scott Morrison is true and make no claim to it being fact at this time. I also am unsure about Fiona Barnett's authenticity and make to claim to know for a fact if anything she has said is true or false. The following is merely being pointed out on account of curiosity, though it is highly likely that this is nothing more than a legit coincidence.
This post is not meant to be conclusive of anything, more just a "Wtf? What a coincidence..." post.
So apparently, in the lead up to the May 18th 2019 election in Australia, an old story about Scott Morrison(ScoMo) is doing the rounds again.
The story, in short, is that in 1997 after the (Rugby) Super League grand final which saw the Brisbane Broncos defeat the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks, Scott Morrison allegedly "violently shat his pants" at the McDonald's in Engadine, New South Wales(NSW), Australia.
^ Source regarding ScoMo rumor resurfacing, with a bit of digging to find out if the story is true (easier to read at original link):

3. We next got our political insider on the phone, former senator Sam Dastyari, to find out whether he had heard about the incident.
“This is a known story, this is a story that’s been doing the rounds for years,” Sam claimed.
“1997, Grand Final, Sharks lost I believe… And I figure he’s had a fair bit to drink, he went to Engadine Maccas and he shat his pants,” he continued to allege. “Only in Australia.”
Dastyari said that ScoMo hasn’t necessarily addressed the incident, but he has been asked about it before.
“He gets heckled about it a lot,” he claimed before saying this is likely to worsen when Mr Morrison hands down the budget next Tuesday.
“People yell it out to him on the streets. This is like Engadine folklore.”
Again, I have no idea if the story is true, but chuckles aside regardless, something else stood out to me when hearing about this. You can see that I emphasized the location of the McDonald's; Engadine, NSW. I couldn't help but think that I'd read about that place somewhat recently...
Turns out I had. Engadine, NSW, is where Fiona Barnett alleges that she grew up and/or was assaulted/trafficked by her (fake(?)) grandparents(?), the Holowczaks(I forget the exact claim of relation); on McAlister Avenue, Engadine, NSW.
Mildly noteworthy is that the McDonald's in question is a relatively short distance east of McAlister Avenue.
Now, my gut says that there's likely no direct relation between the ScoMo rumor and Barnett's story, but I'm still kind of sitting here wondering "is there something fishy going on in Engadine after all? Is there a particular reason Engadine keeps coming up?",
Another thought which comes to mind is, on the slight chance that something fishy is going on, "Is the rumor fake but otherwise some sort of subtle warning/reminder to ScoMo that someone out there has blackmail material on him?"
I know it's a bit of a stretch, really I do. I just find it mighty curious to see Engadine coming up again in such a strange context...
Could very well be nothing all around, just felt like making a note of it.
