I still use crikey when I'm suprised. I also use 'Sweet Christmas!' I don't hear strewth anymore, although I did when I was a kid. I also use fair dinkum and ridgey didge. Yeah, I love being Australian.

I work in a hardware store and had a customer call me Cobber two days ago. I can honestly say that I hadn't been called that before, he wasn't an old bloke either. You usually just get called Mate if the customers don't know your name. When he said it I thought about this thread. So it's still used but very rarely, in fact I might start using it try to get a revival going.
