You dont hear people using 'captain' or 'china' as much anymore.
I remember old guys saying 'gidday china'
Bodgie, widgie, swampy, beven.
.
calling people: sunshine, tiger.
don't do that you will go blind.

some people are like slinky's
they have no useful purpose
but they are fun to watch

used to be a manager at work that called everyone Guv'
and while in tassie.. the in thing was "dead Set".. i didnt like it :|
some i use are
Good-jin (good)
to "Pepper" (stirr/tease)
Random (ie Your a Random guy)
Mad.. just in front of a sentance.. ie" Mad getting petrol at 3am", and "Mad Need a Jump Start!"
and Sif - as if
"Mad Sif i'll get you a drink.. your Random guy"

Yes I can remember many people using "Deadset" many years ago...
Another very old one, not heard very often these days-
"Good aye old Cock" [males] Never ever heard a female version.. I didn't really like being called that anyway... it was used in female company too, so it must have been a Common phrase many years ago...

Regrettably there is a lot of good Australian venacular which has "bitten the dust", especially in the saturating onslaught of vacuous American kulcha; its enough to make you "decorate the garden" with a "technicolour yodel".
Quite a few of the examples cited above are rhyming slang ("Captain Cook", "China" = "china plate" = mate) which can be traced to Cockney English.
Up to the end of the '50s Aussie English was pretty well decorated with expressions we don't hear anymore, but with the advent of television they were suffocated.
