Adelaide would be my choice. Beautiful city that is much like Calgary as others have said. Been to that city numerous times and never want to leave. Right on the ocean, a short drive to Victor Harbor (beautiful little town an hours drive away that also has ferries to Kangaroo Island). North Adelaide is almost like a city within a city. Tons of parks, golf courses, coffee shops, bars, amazing area. Temp can get freakin hot in the summer but overall the climate is great. Cleland park is also just outside Adelaide and is a cool petting zoo kinda place.
I've been to all the other cities you mention save Perth so can't comment on it. Like others have said, it's miles away from anything else. This would be my last choice.
Australia as a whole is an awesome country. The people are just like us really. If you have the oppurtunity to work there for a few years, I'd be all over it.
