Seen in Aranda bush land today.

Difficult to get a good look, but I’m assuming an immature based on the slight streaking on front and back, and the yellow around the gape (4th photo). I couldn’t make out any obvious features, but noticed a small rufous patch on the forehead (2nd photo).

My best guess is a Rose Robin, but the references don’t describe any distinctive differences between the various suspects. Any thoughts?
