"Hopefully VK6 to ZS or FR will be next."
That assumes there are people at each end (1) transmitting; and (2) receiving; at the relevant times and on the same 2M frequencies !!!
Using FT8 will probably be a lot harder than using WSPR to figure out if propagation exists over the path. The FT8 CQ process may be automated, even the to/from of the full QSO too, but there still has to be an operator there to actually manually log the contact to keep the details. That last bit is not automated.
