Watch So You Think You Can Dance Australia online: Episode 2 Auditions: Melbourne and Adelaide

The location may have changed but the rules stay the same – ninety seconds on the floor, with the outcome being a. that all-important ticket to Sydney as part of the Top 100 b. an invitation to dance Matt's group choreography (dancers call this 'corry') later in the day as a further test or c. a flat-out no. First cab off the rank is 19-year-old David, dancing despite his parent's wish he was studying, not stepping out on the floor! He had some white-hot power moves that saw him flying through the air with the greatest of ease - and straight through to the evening's corry. We hope David's parents will be thrilled to learn his efforts there scored him a ticket to Sydney! It's hard to believe the spunky blonde explosion of curls that is 23-year-old Courtney almost didn't audition at all. As she explained to the judges, she hasn't had technical training, but she conquered her fears and decided to try out anyway. Lucky for us she did – the judges had no qualms in offering Courtney a place in the Top 100! Despite being partly blind and deaf, Drumstick impressed our trio with his fluid b-boy moves and after acing the corry, he scored himself a ticket to Sydney. Jason liked Rhys' big start and big end to the confident 25-year-old's routine (set to the very cool sounds of Aussie electro-disco kings, The Presets) and invited him to corry. This charismatic dancer had the skills to pay the bills, and made it to the Top 100. The likeable Sorono family was out in force at the auditions, with energetic siblings Demi, Lorraine and Carlo all competing, as well as Demi's girlfriend Nikki. The judges commended Lorraine on that fact that despite the fact she is deaf, she was able to dance on the beat, but it wasn't enough to take her through. A playful Carlo had more luck scoring a ticket, with Demi and Nikki both having to prove their worth at corry. The pint-sized Demi made the grade, but unfortunately a disappointed Nikki didn't get through. Day two started well with Hip Hop choreographer JD wowing our judges with his assured, unique routine - Jason told the 26-year-old he was his favourite dancer so far! Matt added it was the best corry he's seen on the stage so far. No surprises when JD scored the ticket he wanted. Graceful Ella, an indigenous Ballet graduate, made corry then the Top 100, as did the easy-to-watch dancing partners of Cathie and Kieran. The judges described Mack's unique routine as eclectic, fabulous and interesting, giving the young Dad a ticket to north. Next stop: Adelaide. The gazelle-like Laura used the space to her full advantage with her light, beautiful moves: this pretty ballerina was the first auditionee to be offered the prized ticket straight to Sydney. Maddy was one of the few dancers Jason described as 'dance-fit', and the fact she'd had a child at the age of twenty made it even more impressive! Her routine to 'SexyBack' had the judges in agreement – Maddy was through to the Top 100. The fact the judges described 20-year-old Laura's corry as 25 years old didn't stop them from being impressed by the beautiful blonde's performance. While the cheese factor irked him, Matt seemed to speak for the panel when he said he wanted to find out what happened inside Laura's heart, rather than her head when she danced. Jason said she was one of the better dancer's they'd seen – and her performance at choreography proved she had what it took: she's through to Sydney. Hip Hop dancer Rodoflo was dancing for his late father and his grandfather, and he did his relatives proud, with Jason telling Rodoflo he was the best Hip Hop dancer they'd seen all day. He kept expressing himself at corry, and made it to the Top 100. As the day came to an end, everyone was feeling the pressure of a full day of nerves. Bad news for Keyte, who didn't make it through corry, but better news for sweet sisters Nikki and Tamara. Charming Tamara was offered place in the Top 100, but Nikki had to prove her worth at corry. Two bags will be packed for Sin-City – Nikki made it through! This Wednesday: Sydney steps up to the test.
