Yes the latter is a rufous fantail, and the other just looks like some kind of thornbill I think. Hard to tell from the shot, so I couldnt say definitely. Nice part of the world Kenilworth :)
The first one may be a Large-billed Scrubwren (quite different from the White-browed or Yellow-throated Scrubwrens). The Large-billed Scrubwrens have the round dark eye that gives them quite a "cute" appearance, in my opinion :-)
I suggest a Buff-rumped Thornbill
but that might change if I knew your location ( when you took the pic)

Oops..sorry...it was near Kennilworth Qld.
Figtree Walk..I just googled it (Figtree Walk) and got this:
"Some of the birds you can look out for are wompoo fruit-doves, green catbirds, figbirds, brush turkeys, yellow robins and eastern whipbirds"
Here is another from same day/place...I'm claiming it as a Rufous Fantail...

And what seems to be a slight upward angle of the bill would indicate it's a Large-billed Scrubwren.
