What is the polite way to proceed when introduced to Australians?

Extend the hand to handshake and with a cordial smile say g'day.

@EugenieLaBorgia Yep..good firm handshakes too..no wet fish ones
@Bushmanoz 馃き Wet fish ones huh... Reminds me of Uriah Heep from David Copperfield.

throw an odd, slightly off color joke with liberal use of puns. and be prepared to get back at least as well as you give.

Some typical greetings are, "gday mate..hows it goin?"..to which you reply "good thanks mate, yerself?"..or, another is, "hows it hanging?"..same reply.."good thanks"..or, "no complaints..who'd bloody listen anyway"
