Something of the Huntsman family maybe.

I just read on the CSIRO website that of the ~20,000 varieties of spiders in Australia, only about 2,800 are named.

Well if its not named I will vote for John / Jane the Watermelon spider!

one of my friends seems to think it may be a green orb spider, but I have yet to find a decent picture to confirm if that is the case or not. :?
