Someone posted something about the Australian championship here.

I asked my wife if she wanted to go to Australia and she said sure.  So I posted
something to the effect of, if you let me in, I'll go.

I don't remember who responded, but the general idea was that they were going to
keep it closed, but might let in New Zealanders.

I was counting on them letting in New Zealanders, because I was hoping to meet
Peter McKenzie.  I didn't want to go in order to win, I wanted to go in order to
meet people and see Australia.

No big deal, it is their tournament and they can do what they want.  If they
would rather keep the Americans and Europeans out, I can't object.
