In Australian slang, "cactus" typically means something that is broken, not working, or dead. For example, a car that won't start could be described as cactus.
If something is "cactus", it is broken, doesn't work any more, or another great Australian idiom - "buggered".
Practical application = "Bugger! The motor threw a rod. It's cactus."
If someone says in Australian slang; " you are cactus mate...." the reference is that you are in a load of trouble, or that your immediate future looks grim. One could say that this is a very lateral thought but the slang concept is based on the fact that Cactus live in the desert, get no water and have a pretty tough existence.
