I've no great love for the monarchy, I'll vote for a Republic if it comes up "clean" as a no strings attached kind of question, ..
but I don't "despair" .. the last time UK lackeys meddled in AU affairs ( The Dismissal : https://www.thedismissal.com/ ( bless the little bleeder ) ) goes back a ways and didn't go down well.
Should that kind of stunt get pulled again it'd likely trigger a Republic.
I hate to say this, but after Australia watched the utter chaos of the Trump presidency, I think the likelihood of us switching to a Republic is unlikely for now.
