What are some options, outside obviously Sydney or Melbourne?

I saw that Armidale or all places was discussed. I could see Albury-Wodonga being one (just due to the fact that it was on the border and did boast a population of 7000 in 1911 and had a major railroad passing through it). In fact it would be the one place that arguably makes more sense. Biggest issue is that it is 5 hours to Sydney and 3 hours to Melbourne, so not really equal distance.

Anyway what are some other alternative capitals that Australia could have ended up with outside of Canberra, Sydney or Melbourne?
