Then again maybe not an Agave, the filaments on the sides of the leaves reminded me of Agave filifera, but now I look more closely I'm not convinced. And I'm not sure what other species might have curly filaments on the sides of the leaves like that.

I don't believe Agave filifera hasn't been recorded in Australia before, but otherwise matches superficially.

Does Doryanthes, or other other plant you can think of have those filaments on the sides of the leaves?

This also looks like some photos on the internet I'm seeing of Yucca filimentosa. Most do not have the filaments but a few do.
