BUNDA used to roar laughing at me when trying to say BARRGHIE (the RRs would not roll properly). It was the name of a small vine scrub named after trees (fancy they were red beech) that grew there & the bendy roots were used for making boomerangs (BOG-ON). Think that the coast blacks used to deal them away for spears (GUN-AI) made out of brigalow, from the tribes inland on the edge of the West. 

Yorkie was the local boomerang maker, he chopped the root out with his tomahawk, split it, & finished it off with broken snail ? found in the vine scrubs.

Boomerangs were of two sorts one with a bend about the middle, the other with one end from the bend much longer than the other used for throwing much further than the smaller one.
