Maybe the ('eligible persons') in the very 1st line of T&C's refers to Roses Only customers?..I had read it as Australian residents over the age of 18 yrs ? but on reflection??? a bit ambiguious and does not say how many times you can enter..Mmmmmm....

Another interesting point (am I reading it right?  One sentence says it's one way and the other says you have to return to the same point which sounds like it's return travel)
8. Two Platinum Service tickets travelling on the Indian Pacific Perth to Sydney or vice versa
one way.
The prize is valued at AUD$6,900.....

BUT

The winner (and their travelling companion ) must depart from and return to the same
departure point
and travel together.

I just entered successfully (and signed up to RosesOnly as well) and noticed both those things you mentioned sandybottoms. I thought it was unusual too.
