I don't know much about Spider's but I will say is it a species of Huntsman?
Or maybe a Wolf Spider?
 
Great pics mate, i love spiders! Except when they're in my bedroom while i'm trying to sleep.
 
arrrrghhhh! ewww!
When i lived at Eatons Hill, every time i went to bed at night i would count no less then ten decent sized huntsmans in my curtains. Every shower had a huntsman jump on me. yuck!. Then one day i found the big mumma to all these others i would see and i named it devil arachnid as it would wait in door openings and then jump on me. I swear it was out to get me. Ever since, i just stay away from big spiders. :s
 
Nice spider and great pics, thanks for sharing.
 
Jesus, that would have scared the be jeebers outta me....

Great shots though, what sort of camera did you use?
 
Geeeeeeez louise!!
You've made it look MASSIVE!
That would freak me out if I felt it on my face.. sheesh!
 
as it would wait in door openings and then jump on me

I would have moved. Or died on the spot.
 
This one was in my house not quite as fat but he was definatley big, these are the photos of letting him go.

It never ceases to amaze me that some of us who are snake lovers are constantly trying to re-educate the public regarding the old "the only good snake is a dead snake" theory, yet we are quick to kill a spider who has just as might right to live as any other living creatures (except for co*kroaches, those things should be eliminated... lol)

As much as I am not a fan of spiders (particularly a large, terribly freakish specimen such as this) I always prefer to relocate than to kill.
