The dilated discs on the ends of the digits (toe pads) says it is a Litoria species ("tree frog"). As pointed out, The cross shaped pupils are diagnostic of L. peroni, as are the green flecks on the back (which is rough in texture). The groin, backs of the thighs and even the armpits should have been black with bright yellow mottling - tou can't miss it they are moving. A large specimen is quite an impressive amphibian.
