We played it in Melbourne a few years ago. There might still be people doing it? I know someone asked about it recently on an Aussie bike forum.
Our version was different in that it used an small football (indoor soccer ball? not an Aussie Rules ball!) and we played it on a large grass patch in Richmond.
Goals were just dumped bags, bikes were pieces of crap, mallets were anything really - some proper built, some using cricket bats, etc.
It was great fun. The only bike I've ever had stolen was The Tank which was my polo bike. sigh
