In Canberra, it is often difficult to tell these two species apart. Your third photo shows that the leaf margins are definitely rolled under, which makes it aculeata. Longifolia leaf margins are flat to curved down, never rolled down. Leaf width in aculeata is 0.7-2 mm; leaf width in longifolia is 2-6 mm wide.
