Are those really grey kangaroos? At first glance the look rather reddish to me and the description of photo on commons doesn't really have any information on the species and just calls it "wild kangaroos".

Every source I've ever seen says the red is larger. I've also stood next to fully grown males of both species many times and I am in no doubt it is the red that is larger.
