This is not L. longifolia which is a much bigger plant. It is best to look for evidence of inflorescence.

This looks identical to https://canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Sightings/Details/3395590 which I thought was L. bracteata but was identified as L. longifolia. Leaf tips can be variable. I don't think I will try to identify lomandra species until Spring.
