This is definitely a Phylloporus though am unable to confirm the species name. There are so many Phylloporus species in Australia that are yet unnamed, that together with many species being called by overseas names it has become very confusing. A couple of things to note if you are looking at id'ing Phylloporus that are very IMPORTANT: firstly note the colour of the basal mycelium - is it white or yellow; NH3 reactions negative or positive (blue or green, sometimes pinkish lilac or rarely other colour)
