Opuntia, most likely O. stricta, a Weed of National Sigificance. I dug out 7 specimens and deposed in rubbish bin.

Hi Silke or Michael
I'm pretty sure this is Opuntia stricta. Could you confirm?
I just registered another 4 which Isobel and I found along and south of Hancock road.

I can't confirm because I don't administer this site...
