Thread: Eurovision song contest, with an Aussie in the final?

SBS has been an associate member of the EBU (European Broadcasting Union) pretty much since they started airing Eurovision. Australia does and in fact has always had as much right to enter Eurovision as, say Israel or Azerbaijan (both technically Asian countries).

Also Australia has a bigger viewing audience than most European participant countries. When you consider the size of our local music industry we are arguably one of the "big five" (now six) who should be automatically put through to the final.
