I have previously lived in Australia. For a short-term visitor my suggestion is to check the main two supermarkets' websites (Coles and Woolworths) for their weekly sales catalogue – it is common one or both to offer discounted SIM kits of one of the major networks. Often for $15 down to just $5 you can purchase a $30 SIM pack, activate online and have yourself a good month's worth of usage calls and several GBs of 4G data. It is not uncommon for some locals to purchase multiple of these and activate a new SIM each month for data-only plans, or port between carriers for their voice service. For a little hassle it can provide very cost-effective.
