“Adelaide just feels the right spot,” McLachlan told Tony Jones on 3AW Mornings.
“The fact that it’s in the middle of Australia and people can drive from Melbourne, you can get here from Perth pretty easily – there’s so many West Australians here.
“And there’s people from everywhere, that’s a pretty strong asset as well.”
South Australian Premier Peter Malinauskas thanked Victorians for travelling to the big event.
“It’s all come together an absolute treat,” he said on 3AW Mornings.
“A lot of people are coming across the border and we’re wrapt about it.”
