It comes after Schapelle made a hilarious joke following cricketer David Warner's desperate plea for the return of his stolen baggy green.

Warner said on Instagram on Tuesday that his backpack, containing his baggy green bag, had disappeared during transport between Melbourne and Sydney this week.

“Unfortunately, someone took my backpack out of my luggage, which contained my backpack and my girls' presents,” Warner said ahead of the SCG Test against Pakistan.

'My baggy green was in this backpack. It's sentimental to me. It's something I'd like to have in my hands when I walk around there this week.

“If it's the backpack you really wanted, I have a spare here. You won't get into trouble.

'Please contact Cricket Australia or myself via my social media. I'll be happy to give you this if you give me back my bags of greens.'

The outgoing Warner said he had spoken to Qantas about the situation.

'A few days ago our bags were shipped via Qantas. We looked at CCTV footage and apparently they have some blind spots,” Warner said.

'We have spoken to the Quay West hotel, who we absolutely trust, they have gone through their cameras and no one has entered our rooms.

“If you're the person who worked for the company that drove him to and from the airport, or worked for @qantas and just happened to want the backpack, I have one for you.

“I would appreciate it if these were returned as soon as possible.”

Schapelle received almost 250 likes when she replied to Warner's post with the comment: 'Qantas! Well, I have a story for you,” accompanied by an exploding head emoji.

Schapelle received many likes with her response to Warner's news when she joked about her conviction for smuggling marijuana into Indonesia in her luggage in 2004.

Viewers on Instagram couldn't get enough of her joke, responding with comments like “love your work,” “just spit out my drink,” “there can't be a better comment for 2024” and “god tier comment.”

Schapelle's legal defense team raised the possibility that a Qantas baggage handler planted marijuana in her boogie board bag when she was on trial for smuggling the drug into Indonesia in 2004.

That defense did not work and she was found guilty in 2005.

Ny Breaking Australia does not conclude that a Qantas employee was in any way involved in the discovery of the drug in Schapelle's luggage.
