If you plan to travel by plane, your cheapest option would be a direct flight from Melbourne to Newcastle.
According to the Qantas website, such a flight will take either take 1 hour and 25 minutes (operated by Jetstar) or 2 hours and 5 minutes (operated by another carrier not named on the list page). The Jetstar flights are cheaper, ranging from $88 to $512. (The difference is in the flexibility that you have in changing your flight.)
If you don't want to catch a plane and can't have anyone drive you, there are also trains from Melbourne to Newcastle via Sydney. However, these require booking too, and it will cost around $163, which is more than the cheapest flight. The trip will involve changing trains, and the journey from Melbourne to Sydney Central alone will take 11 hours, and then it'll take another two hours or so to go to Newcastle from Sydney Central.
(All prices quoted are in Australian Dollars.)
Note that both trains and planes are fully booked for the next few days, so if you need to get there soon, you will have to have someone drive you. Driving will probably take around 12 hours, but unless you have multiple people taking turns driving you, you'll probably have to stop for breaks.

According to Google Maps it will take about 12 hours. You can take a plane. It will cost around 100 AUD/87USD/44GBP one-way with one person. The price changes drastically, though, and can be anywhere between A$200 and A$80.
