I don't know if this is a species to be concerned about. I don't think I have ever seen it grow any further than a metre from a road or footpath. Seems to love asphalt, but is possibly allergic to soil.

Chloris virgata

It's definitely not Eragrostis curvula. The seedheads were wrong for ALG.

Thanks Matt
I also submitted a sample to the ANBG. The reply from Helen Kennedy also suggested Dichanthium sericeum subsp, sericeum
