Last year when I did this trip I bought an M class ticket and used a SWU and that worked out just great (Thanks again YOWKid).

Just wanted to check with the gurus to see if this is still a good way to go. M class is about $4200 at the moment.

Any tips/confirmations would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
You can get fairly cheap flights YYZ-SYD with TourEast (approx 1.4k taxes in). Not sure if the fares are valid in September, but 2.8k extra for biz class seems like a hefty premium. And plus, if you fly mid-week you may be ok with a SSWU. I would go for the lotto for that kind of money.
