Well believe it or not Aussies were closely watching our bid for 2022. If there is a host country and city (Melbourne) that has a proven record to put on some of the best shows for top profile sporting events then I think we have an edge. Though it seems like from the start that Australia were not going to get a fair shake. The financial study to FIFIA said Australia would be the worst country financially for a return. I believe that FIFA got it wrong with the analysis of Aus, I think people would come far and wide to watch it here, as it's a fun and safe place to be.

Well this was our bid video which was presented by Elle MacPherson. One thing to note was not even one soccer player is in this video, they are all our other athletes... lol.
