BUT, AUSTRALIA (where he wants to go) Isn't on the list when they ask:

Where do you want to travel. ?

It appears that this site is FOR Australians travelling abroad, not for
Visitors to OZ

No. From the site:

MBF Overseas Visitors' Cover helps pay for your healthcare costs, such
as hospital and some medical charges incurred, while you're in
Australia. It is ideal if you:

* Are planning a visit to Australia of less than 12 months
* Are not a resident of Australia
* Do not have adequate travel insurance with a medical component

Its to provide overseas visitors to Australia with medical cover. Than
is normally included in travel insurance but the original poster can
not get travel insurance for more than 30 days.
