@Hejor1 - for your information for future identifications. Notes for why I'm saying Austroagrion watsoni (non-technical language, as I don't know enough of the technical terms yet to use without looking up)
1) green stripes on top of thorax
2) blue slightly wavy line across the back of the head, rather than single blue dots
3) notch out of the wider ring of blue at the end of the abdomen, rather than a smooth even width ring
