They may have just mistaken their group number or the call!

Or not travelled with QF in the last 18months

All is possible.

No excuse with boarding group clearly displayed on both printed and app boarding passes.

Like when you see people with teenage kids trying to claim they need to board early because they have kids. I like that on last few international flights out of Sydney the announcement for early boarding has specified people requiring wheel chair assistance or with kids under 2.

Group boarding work as expected today at MEL for QF167. 3 eldery pax and one unaccompanied minor boarded before any announcements then called Group 1.

They often do that unannounced. I was once waiting to board at ADL when three very fit looking guys boarded with no announcement. The two outside guys were very close to the middle guy. I asked and nothing was said just the wrists put together! Go figure!

Escorting a detainee! Fair enough for pre-boarding!
