I didn't think it was realistic early on. But there has been more than one day of 0 local virus cases in Australia. So it was tantalizingly close. Heck, if you take out VIC they've basically done it. If AU did a lock down like NZ they would have almost certainly achieved a similar result. But hindsight is an easy thing.
