It prompted a question — could the Liberals take such a hit at this month's poll that its role as State Opposition could be under threat?
Notably, political analysts say that scenario would be a "catastrophic" outcome for the Liberals and is "extremely unlikely".
But there has been a lot of rhetoric and speculation around the predicted "landslide", so it is worth exploring the issue.
