Southern Silverbelly
Looked it up in Sea Fishes of Southern Australia and it looks identical to the pic of Southern Silverbelly.Found from NSW,VIC,SA and up to Rottnest in WA.
Hope it clears any doubts

saw a pic of that one also
saw a pic of that one also but thought the nose on marcs one looked too pointed and also the fin on the underside was longer.....thats why i thought maybe long finned silver biddy instead of the common silver biddy
