Southern Galaxies in suburban sky's

Hi guys, after taking up astronomy about 6 months ago I've seen plenty of globulars, open clusters,nebula ect in my suburban backyard (Orange Zone I think) but despite trying I haven't seen any form of a galaxy (not even a faint fuzzy form if there is one).
I have a 12" f4.9 GoTo Dob so positioning the target should not be a problem.
Today I was reading another site "Cloudy nights" and there was a thread discussing "Northern hem Galaxies in suburbia" and there was a long list of targets which appeared to be no problem for our northern friends.
If there is southern hem galaxies available to me could someone kindly post a list for me ?
