Yield depends on size of tree. Apple will flower and fruit on old wood. It can fruit on the first year, depending on conditions and how much of the old wood you prune. I'd say on a good first year, it is possible to get a half dozen of apple on the tree. Though a better bet is on the 2nd year (after 2 winters).

Also, as you live in coffs, you may also consider some mid chill apples.

I get flowers in flushes I've had 3 lots of flowers but I'm pulling them off, Red anna, I got two of them late summer last year. I want to let them grow for at least 1 year first before I even think about fruit

Russ, I predict disappointment and axing the apple experiment.Every once in a while the impossible happens but it sure will be a challenge.
