Good photos but a rather non distinctive bird. On shape and modest stripey appearance, I suggest a young Rufous Whistler.

I took these photos of a bird at Campbell Park today and am stumped as to an Id.
The photos were taken in the vicinity of woodswallows, flycatchers, thornbills, brown-headed honeyeaters, varied sittellas, rufous whistler and some thornbills and I took many photos
in a short period of time.
I actually have no recollection of this particular bird. It wasn't close (photos savagely cropped). As a result I can't really give any indication of size. I'm sure it is something
common, possibly a younger bird (slight yellow tinge to gape) and it was high up in the tree.
Any help would be appreciated.
