Not Poa, as the florets have very short awns. If the back of the lemmas are keeled throughout, it is a Hookerochloa (used to be in Festuca). If the lower part of the lemmas are rounded, its a Festuca.

Thanks. Im going to have to do some reading up on grass anatomy

@danswell considering you've posted several other Hookerochloa from the same area, it more than likely that genus.
