Looks more like an Olive to me, also quite possible given location. Will see what others think

Yeah the ground-dwelling habit of the bird is much more reminiscent of Olive Whistler, as it mainly forages on the ground and rarely forages above mid-understorey, and is quite secretive. Golden Whistler which is more of a mid-understorey to canopy species and much more prevalent and active. The white throat is another good indicator of Olive Whistler.
