Thanks Forest Dragon. I will just go with a general "Forest Grasshopper" tag and the Goniaea sp. although I like Slender Leaf G. most

This little cutie is a nymph grasshopper. I think it looks most like one from Genus Goniaea (Gum Leaf Grasshoppers). Here is a pretty good reference I found. Maybe you can figure out the species, nymphs can be difficult: http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_grasshoppers/Goniaea.htm
