Before I moved up to Melbourne to live, I had an excellent raptor site on my doorstep in Geelong. The Fyansford Common is a great spot, probably about 20 hectares of riverbank and open grassy flats, tucked into the suburban edge of Geelong, and whilst I've never had 8 species in one day (things take a bit longer outside the tropics), the quality over time is high. The most in one birding session was 7 raptor species (I think).
