There are some quite large tyrannosaur-sized footprints (from both
Cretaceous and Jurassic deposits), and quite a large partial manual claw
that MAY resemble that of spinosaurids or carcharodontosaurids. I doubt
anything will be pinned down to a particular genus any time soon (in the
case of prints, never of course). Apparently there is a reasonably good
website about all this Australian dinosaur nonsense, but I don't seem to
remember the URL.  :)
