Lovely spider, It's a shame such a pretty breed is often so... ill-tempered.

legspan wide I'm not really sure as it spends most of its time in it's burrow. I was going to say you must live in Australia but yep looked at your info and you do. Funnelwebs are pretty dangerous if you let your guard down.

Never seen a funnel web in person but we have lots of black widows here. I think the funnel web is probably a little more aggressive.
