Brown Gerygone?

At first I thought this was a type of thornbill but I couldn't seem to find one that fits. Now I'm leaning towards Brown Gerygone - any thoughts?

Found in Budawang NP, NSW. 

2nd pic is not good but gives a better view of the colouring which seems like cinnamon on top with dark tail, grey around cheek and lighter under belly.

I agree with Brown Gerygone, that white eyebrow and grey face and upper neck are the indicators for the race richmondi from NSW
