FORMER Victorian premier Steve Bracks only has to ask, to be handed the safe Labor seat of Gellibrand replacing Nicola Roxon, who is retiring from politics, Fairfax Media says.
Insiders have told Fairfax that the seat, which overlaps Mr Bracks' former state seat of Williamstown, was his for the taking.
He lives in the electorate and is being touted as a natural fit.
Mr Bracks, who shocked Victoria by quitting politics in July 2007, is on a walking holiday in Tasmania and could not be contacted.
His only other rival for the seat would be Senator David Feeney, one of the so-called faceless men who helped Julia Gillard depose Kevin Rudd as prime minister.
Senator Feeney occupies the No.3 position on Labor's Victorian Senate ticket, and is unlikely to be re-elected given Labor's poor standing in opinion polls.
But Fairfax says it would be impossible to deny Mr Bracks if he wanted to return to politics on the federal stage.
