Chris, it is one of the Rattus species (head not pointed enough for Antechinus or Dunnart which are also smaller and this habitat/location rules out the aquatic and mountain species of small mammal). Hard to separate the rats in trail cam pics but long tail visible in 1st pic pushes me to R. rattus i.e. Black Rat.
