"No worries" - not really slang, but common enough use...

cordial - like kool-aid for our north american friends

to let something "go through to the keeper" - from the game of Cricket - to let somethine lie(usually in a conversation, perhaps something a bit risque or embarasshing: "I'll let that go through to the keeper!")

digger - a common bloke(man)- usually a mate in the pub - "How are ya, ya old digger?"

larrakin - a bit of a lout/fool.. someone who likes to muck around.. usually harmless fun

little johnnie - a [unmentionable]

Some Rhyming Slang:

Frog & Toad - Road
Dog & Bone - 'phone
Trouble & Strife - wife
