Conclusively, comprehensively and definitively on top
Yes, I know of late that I have been espousing the virtues of Melbourne, however I am a Sydney man through and through. Sure, in Melbourne the bars may be cooler, the coffee and wine nicer, and the people friendlier, but at the end of the day you’ve gotta love this city for its body and not its soul. We’ve got the harbour, we’ve got the bridge, and we’ve got the beaches.
So it is nice to see that, in possibly the most important competition between Australia’s two major cities, Sydney has come out on top.
Sydney is officially grouped with NYC and London is the global edition of Monopoly. The positions were decided by a global poll; interstingly, although Sydney won the most votes worldwide, Melbourne was the most popular within Australia. I guess this proves that Melbournians will try anything to get one up on us.
Viva Sydney!
