Phonognatha graeffei
Resting inside a very appealing hide made of young furry leaves this spider kept it's two front legs on the main lines to a web extended across tall grasses. It looked about 20mm long, had complex yellow and brown patterns on its back, orange banded forelegs.
Tall grasses in suburban back yard.
Yet to search for ID... suspect some orb spider maybe.
