Why should they? Australia came second not Russia. I am despising the "Russia should have won" camp. If anyone should have a say on things it is SBS not Russia 1. I am growing more and more animosity toward Russia and Sweden in the contest.

You can't exactly host a contest out of Australia, can you? They've always said in the event they win, they'll sub-contract hosting to another country.

The more Ukraine fanny about, the more I hope it does go elsewhere as it doesn't bode well for an efficiently-managed contest.

I know that. Surely SBS could find a co broadcaster pretty sharp? Anyway it all is a mess and the EBU and to a degree SVT have made their bed. So they must lie in it.

Can you imagine when they are revealing the qualifiers suddenly the host (Zlata please) suddenly just says we will find out tomorrow, we need more time to decide

Russia probably have an arena on standby and have already put in an order for more LED screens

Oh I bet they have. Which only angers me more in regards to Russia.

I dread to imagine the tension between Russia & Ukraine at the contest if Russia were to end up hosting despite the latter winning, it would be less like Eurovision and more like a red wedding à la Game of Thrones.

I'm backing #teamOdessa assuming an announcement tomorrow is actually going to happen and not to be postponed because they ran out of cocktail sausages or whatever the reason. Still, third time the charm!

I may have forgotten about this I will open it later

You may now fill my inbox with your fantasy entries

Debating weather or not to enter Fantasy this week, I'm in Bulgaria for a week from Monday, and I'm not sure what the wifi will be like in the hotel

Surely we aren't actually going to get an announcement tomorrow, I refuse to believe it! This announcement is like the most edged orgasm that's just waiting to explode but just keeps on going on and on with no conclusion

I think the only chance of me screaming is if they postpone it yet again!

Tantric Eurovision? Well that's new ....

I'm going to believe that at 11am tomorrow I will be searching for a hotel room in X for the rehearsal week 😎

I don't think it'll be over even if they do flip a coin and pick one. I bet the losing side will attempt to lodge an appeal just to keep up the drama - Ruslana and Klitschko challenging Odessa to a mixed tag team brawl. Then the winner has actually got to deliver on their proposal

Rumours now that they've done a U-turn on Odessa and gone for Kiev instead. Expect Dnipro to be announced tomorrow then!

I heard it was Lviv!

can someone remind me of the rules?

i forgot to vote in the best eurovision comeback round, does this mean i miss this week's fantasy round?

Aww bless ya thimsy!

No, it's only if you don't vote in the Fantasy heat itself were you are barred from the next one. Otherwise it's fine.

Thanks for keeping me right..

You're welcome thimsy!

Live stream for the announcment is here, obviously they aren't in any hurry.

All that for Kiev! Bet the people who have already booked hotels are breathing a sigh of relief!

It's Kiev. We waited 3 months for an announcement.....and it's Kiev.

Coming up! A live stream announcement were we will be told what colour the sky is!

Lol...
