Nicholas, I don't think we have A. pantherina in Australia. We do have A. phalloides (Death Cap) and quite a number of other Amanita species, one of which this could be, given the retained veil high up on the stem. I'm tending toward thinking that it is A. umbrinella from this photo.

I think this may be an Amanita Pantherina var. Velarites
If so it's DEADLY
