Sorry for the late reply. I went away for a few days and didn't have internet access.
No, it's not a Fig Parrot.
You're close. It's not a part of the broad-tailed parrots, but it is in the tribe Platycercini.
Platycercini = broad-tailed parrots ;)

is it a rosella?

Actually, there are some parrots within Platycercini that do not fall into the braod-tailed parrots category. At least, that's what I gathered from my reading yesterday.
And no, it's not a Rosella.

On Wikipedia "broad-tailed parrots" are as English name for Platycercini... but nevermind, maybe it depends on a classification - I know a version which has Pezopornini members being include into Platycercini... so maybe genus Pezoporus?

I'm not sure. It thought that's when it said, but I could totally be wrong. In any case, the bird is in Platycercini, lol.
