I'm Australian and I've never had a pizza with an egg on it in my life, although I am fully aware of the 'Aussie' pizza that they sell in pizza shops here. The vast majority of people never buy that, the most popular choice is 'Capricciossa'.
As for sausages, eggs and chips. I have eaten that occasionally for dinner at times in my life when no one could be stuffed cooking a proper balanced meal. It is a fairly well known combination here sold as part of a 'full English breakfast'. Most people here don't eat that sort of thing for breakfast though and it is a pretty stodgy combination for dinner unless you are on a tight budget and that's all you can afford, or as I mentioned no one can be stuffed cooking where it is a very quick and easy meal to prepare.
As for Australian sausages, I can tell you straight out that generally speaking, Australians don't consider themselves connoisseurs of sausages nor do they care. From what I have read on this forum it seems to be a source of national pride in the UK.
You have to remember that all these European and British things were brought into this country by European and British settlers and therefore there is not really such a thing as a truly 'Australian' sausage. Australian sausages can actually, for the most part, be traced directly back to England. 
Also who says that English style sausages are the best kind of sausages anyway? Aren't sausages more of a central European cultural icon? Bratwurst etc. I didn't realise the UK had bought the cultural rights to the product.

How could you possibly know that the vast majority of people wouldn't buy an 'Aussie' Pizza ? I wouldnt have a clue what other people bought, my comment was that an Aussie was a pizza with an egg on it that's all.

"Capricciossa" might be the "most popular" but I've never even heard of it.... what's on that then?

I had to look it up, apparently it is 'mozzarella, tomato, mushrooms, artichokes, cooked ham, olives, oil'. I cant imagine a pizza with artichokes and olives being the most popular ?

If its not, the Europa from the swiss wood fire pizza place in rose bay should be the most popular. It has roast potato on it. You could shove the pizza in a stew and it wouldnt be out of place.
