Hey Santaslayer I found out how to cite austlii cases:
Internet/ Electronic Sources
Generally, cases, journals and other conventional sources in electronic form should be referenced in the same format as their counterparts with the addition of the following information following the conventional citation.

[<URL>] (Copy on file with author) [Pinpoint/ Paragraph Reference]. Eg.

Palmer v The Queen [1998] HCA 2 (Unreported, Brennan CJ, Gaudron, McHugh, Gummow and Kirby JJ, 20 January 1998) <http://austlii.edu.au/au/cases/cth/high_ct/1998/2.html> (Copy on file with author) [11].


Other non-conventional sources should also include the name of the homepage and the responsible organization following the identification of the author and article title.

U were right about the paragraphs!
WTF is copy on file with author?

Don't forget the date of retrieval!!!!!!

Palmer v The Queen [1998] HCA 2 (Unreported, Brennan CJ, Gaudron, McHugh, Gummow and Kirby JJ, 20 January 1998) <http://austlii.edu.au/au/cases/cth/high_ct/1998/2.html> (Copy on file with author) [11]. at 6 January 2002.
