...yes but to do it justice you would need two things.

1) a typically aussie understatement. eg. your friend is a "big", "complete" or "steaming pile of" said "shit". However, your enemy is a "little" or "bit of a" said "shit".

2) a typically aussie inflection. eg the letter "u" would be pronounced "ar" as in "car".

Put it all together and you get... "a bit of a carnt".

I prefer "a feckless carnt" but only when I'm trying to be a bit high brow.
