Seems to be mostly harmless.

Hope they killed it. Dead.

At least it isn't another poisonous one.

Why does everything in Australia sound like it was named by a silly dad that was making up words for his 4 year old?
What’s that? A Bandy bandy!
And that? A Billabong
Ok fine, what’s that long instrument that guy is playing? A Digerydoo !

Considering all the other shit over there actively seeking to kill you, I wouldn't worry overmuch about that one- "Typical symptoms resulting from a bite include localised pain, swelling of the site of the wound and surrounding joints, tingling and numbness of extremities." All the articles saying "extremely venomous." Seriously? Did they forget the Eastern brown snake or the Inland taipan, the world's 2 most venomous terrestrial snakes?

Good point. Most of those symptoms sound like my avergae night in a bar at age 20.
