Not sure either - may be fuscipes but nose not right. Maybe forget this one.

Now a look at it a little more looks like Rattus rattus as the ears and large and lacks roman nose.

Rattus rattus does not seem to be on Species list

Maybe because Rattus rattus it is an exotic species. Lots of species are not on the list. I have suggested that the list be amended by looking at the Atlas of Living Australia then local government then select Shoalhaven then mammals etc. The bird list would be Ok as you have compiled that but the other groups need work.
