Without leaves or stems rooting (or not) at leaf nodes, I cannot be sure if it is even Glycine, let alone a species of Glycine that is extremely uncommon in the ACT and tablelands.

I have added two photos from a plant just next door. Does this give you what you need?

From the fact that the side veins are at an angle I am fairly sure this is clandestina. The smaller veins in microphylla are net-like. On the other hand it does not appear to be twining. Is it rooting at the nodes (microphylla), ot not (microphylla)?

Assuming it is not rooting at the nodes, then I think the hairiness of the stems is another feature that tips this to most likely being clandestine
