Apparently Theretra radiosa is not found in Australia. T queenslandi not found this far south before either.

We are still learning about moths in Australia. Found this record from the Shoalhaven which is not far as the moth flies!! https://biocache.ala.org.au/occurrences/8b9c596d-d433-4f9e-b6da-b5c066aa6f78

T. radiosa is a tropical species.
The moths have two dark dorsal abdominal stripes, which yours does not have,
so I think it is T. queenslandi. (Don H-E)
