If I used the multi city and made the second flight SYD-WLG, the price shot up, whereas if the assumption was a flight where the SYD stopover was the MCT, the price was extremely good.

If this is CAI-DXB-SYD//SYD-WEL-SYD-DXB-CAI then I'm getting the £1500 or so price using CAI-DXB-SYD@DEC12, SYD-WLG@JAN8, WLG-CAI@JAN9 in the multi-city search.

Or were you looking for something else?
