Pretty sure that it is the striped wallaby grass because that was the species that I broadcasted over years of weeding; but I will collect seed heads and take close up photos of seeds or scans.

Yes, I agree it is very likely but with the exception of R.pallidum and R.carphoides I won't accept Rytidosperma beyond genus level with seeds
