Leaves don't look right, more likely Brachyscome I'd say

@Steve818 can you please check this out - base of leaves and possible purpling on outside edge of flower bracts makes be suspect it being Ox-eye - but only suspect

Bracts on ox-eye daisy seem to overlap. See these two links: https://vicflora.rbg.vic.gov.au/flora/taxon/9cc45e4a-754a-44f8-8cbe-772fc1df4f0d#&gid=1&pid=6
and https://bie.ala.org.au/species/https://id.biodiversity.org.au/node/apni/2896560#gallery
Whereas the bracts on Brachyscome diversifolia don't appear to overlap. See this link. https://bie.ala.org.au/species/https://id.biodiversity.org.au/taxon/apni/51267772
@MichaelMulvaney @Tapirlord @natureguy what do you think?

Yes so that makes it Ox-eye Daisy in my view.

I had the wrong species of Brachyscome the first time (As I was using my phone), leaf shape is off for B.diversifolia so instead this will be B.dentata which should also be in the area. leaves are neither obovate nor spathulate so this cannot be ox eye daisy. Instead the are closer to linear as in B.dentata.
