Grey Butcherbird as well - I was swooped by one on several occasions
while cycling on Cotter Road during nesting season this year.

I was swooped by a Noisy Friarbird today as I paused to watch it
feeding its young in the nest. This is the first time I've been
swooped by this species, which got me thinking of all those which
have. I'm sure others will have more, but for me, so far, this is the
list of birds that I can remember swooping me:
Australian Magpie
Masked Lapwing
Brown Goshawk
Pied Currawong
Dusky Woodswallow
Red Wattlebird
Noisy Friarbird
Noisy Miner
I would be interested in hearing what encounters others have had.
