Opposition to Australian account (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aversion

'opposition' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'australian account' is the wordplay.
'australian' becomes 'A' (common abbreviation).
'account' becomes 'version' (version is a kind of account).
'a'+'version'='AVERSION'

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for aversion that I've seen before include "an object of dislike" , "A version of strong dislike" , "phobia" , "Abhorrence - loathing" , "A strong dislike for something - turn away from it" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
