Small pink flower with green leaf and tendrils spreading further afield. Internet search makes me think its Convolvulus althaeoides

The flowers do look like Convolvulus altheoides, a native of the Mediterranean, which as far as I know is not in Australia. Though all the native Convolvulus in eastern Australia have flowers like this.
Excellent picture of the leaves, which often die back before flowering.
