You will want to get some good quality eyepieces. If you think you may want to go bigger for those fainter targets rather than magnification then I say go for the 8". Later when you want a bigger scope or a different one for astrophotography or whatever it will still be a good size to use as a second scope anyway. 8 or 10 in wagga wont disappoint, but then again EVERY scope disappoints eventually, you can never have a big enough light bucket. Its the eyepieces that do the heavy work and the ones that you get with a telescope are at best "ok" and you will get a noticable viewing "upgrade" of clarity and contrast.
