    Yes, it will play with black bars on the top and bottom of your 'regular' TV (4:3 square tv). I'm also assuming you've purchased a DVD that is local region- and format-compatible (whatever is standard in Australia.. Region 4, PAL??).

    Then you are OK. The DVD will play but it will have black bars on top/bottom of your TV screen. Enjoy.
