This belongs to tribe Boarmiini of the subfamily Ennominae of the Geometridae. It is worn, and there are several possibilities - see Moths of Victoria Part 7. It would be good to have a photo of a fresh specimen, preferably showing the antennae.

This sighting was rejected but seeing the recent ID of Ectropis fractaria, they look the same to me.
