Looks like Drosera glanduligera, hard to get an idea of scale and there are no flowers to see.

Each plant was around the size of a 20-50c piece?

It could also be the seedling stage of the more common Drosera peltata or auriculata, which elongate into a flowering stem about 20cm high. In fact that sounds more likely if they were as large as that. A side-on photo of the flower would be needed to pick between those two species.
