you know I think vr94ss has a good pic there and it is identical to your spider.
I am saying "Sydney trapdoor, commonly confused with a funnel web", but I beleive they can still give a good bite. Not the sort of thing you want in your bedroom.

I'm pretty sure trapdoors are harmless to people. I wouldn't want to get bitten by any spider though
Just googled and on FREE Australian Spiders Identification Chart they says:
Venom toxicity - the bite of the Trap-Door Spider is of low risk (non toxic) to humans. It is a non-aggressive spider - usually timid but may stand up and present it's fangs if harassed. Rarely bites - but if so it can be painful.
