It depends on which side of Melbourne you are on, your vehicle, and your driving preferences. I'm on the east side of Melb, hate slow driving on Australian freeways, don't drive a 4 wheel drive, and am quite happy driving on gravel, so I prefer to go via Buchan and Suggan Buggan. Some people prefer to go all the way east to Cann River, up to Bombala, and then cut back through Dalgety and Berridale, but that's a huge distance.
If yo go up the Hume, then there's no need to go all the way to Tumut.
