Emigration UK to Australia - Anwyl in 1920/30s

[cyclops09]

A relative Walter Rowland Anwyl b 1874 Liverpool, m 1910 Elizabeth Richardson in Bootle near Liverpool, emigrated to Australia possibly 1923, but I can find no trace of him on passenger lists. I have an electoral roll listing  for 1939 in Melbourne
 Any help on dating his moving to Australia would be most appreciated

...name of ship Liverpool 

Hi Rosie, is there any way we can check the name of the ship? Just i found the below in the VIC archives online and it shows the ship was named Irishman.

Arrival into Victoria
ANWYLL WALTER  aged  34  Date  MAY 1912   Ship IRISHMAN
ANWYLL ELIZABETH   aged  26   Date  MAY 1912   Ship  IRISHMAN

Many thanks for the rapid replies despite my estimate of 1923! - was totally unaware that Elizabeth's brother Robert was in Australia, I wonder if they travelled out together?
Many thanks
