NEED AUSTRALIAN SLANG!!!

Hey!!!
Could anyone help me to learn a bit of australian slang/dialect/accent. I terribly like the language and i'm already practising it by watching australian films etc. It's my intention to move to australia one day and i'd like to know more about the language, culture, traditions.

Language pair: English; French

Hi, I'm an Aussie girl and would love to help you out on all the oddities of my country. My native language is English, but I studied Italian and Russian for a while at uni. Unfortunately, I'm not a gold member, but perhaps you can post your queries here and I'll get back to you.

Re:NEED AUSTRALIAN SLANG!!!
The slang is different in different states. An example in Melbourne something can be "grouse" (good) but this will be little understood up north.
