I've did a couple of new routes at Watchmen Wall in the Northern Grampians late last year. Not on theCrag yet, but I'll get that done soon.
Here's what I sent into ARGUS:

Northern Grampians
Watchmen Wall

Loiterer 19m 22
A short, hard crux at the end of easier climbing – sure to be popular with boulderers!
Start as for We Like to Watch. Follow WLTW to its big half way ledge. Climb diagonally left past 2 FHs to the guano stained ledge (Clip the FH up right). Loiter as long as you like, before powering up to the anchors. (5 bolts)

Loiterer Left hand Variant* 21m 19
This easier LHV of Loiterer finally provides the much needed warm-up at the cliff.
Start directly as for We Like to Watch, or climb in easily right of the first FH. Follow WLTW to its big half way ledge. As for Loiterer, climb diagonally left past 2 FHs to the guano stained ledge. Clip the FH up right with a sling or long quickdraw. Loiter as long as you like, before traversing easily left to the black groove using big underclings. Clip the FH and up to the anchors. (6 bolts)

Both of these routes finish at the same anchors.
