Only cause of the Polish people abroad voting for it and there are plenty of Polish scattered throughout western Europe.
People always say this, but at the end of the day diaspora countries almost never win, when was the last time? 2007 with Serbia, and that song would've won with juries too.
It's probably for the best that we have a jury that can somewhat manipulate the results. Imagine if a broke country like Greece or Portugal wins ESC, what would happen then? I don't think they have the resources or are even allowed to spend money on hosting this contest.
They should go back to the 100% televote system next year. Italy doesn't normally get neighbor votes, yet it would've won (by far). On the other hand, the winner, Sweden, would've been 3rd. They should learn from this and just let the people decide.

That's not what I said. I don't mind Portugal or Greece winning at all. Just saying some countries have financial struggles and might not be able to afford hosting, hence the jury coming in handy so there won't be any controversy over a country with a lot of debt spending money on ESC.

they could just not host eurovision the next year...and also the profits are bigger than the costs
and the big5 qualified immidiatelly to final because they offer financial support?
