How much time should we allow between an international arrival and a separate Sydney domestic flight?

We land early from overseas, must collect checked bags and want to connect to Melbourne on a separately booked ticket.

    Book a later domestic flight if the price difference is tolerable. A small delay to the international arrival could make an apparently generous two-hour gap unusable.
