Seeking Identification, South Australia

Hey guys, been lurking for a while first time posting. This is my first season hunting, I look forward to contributing to the community as I learn more, everything here was found in SA, Aus.
I've been picking a few times over the last few months, pine mushrooms for dinner and magics for dessert. I've successfully and confidently identified previously however it has been a little dryer lately and this last session only yeilded older specimens which are quite dry and thusly I'm finding it harder to be confident with some of my finds. Some of them the stem + cap clearly indicates sub to me but some are so dry they aren't really bruising and seem possibly too brown in the stem.. I just set them up to do some spore prints. So I'm looking for help ID'ing what I think are subs, and then I have some random photos it would be cool to get an ID on
Habitat: Pine forest
Gills: Cream colour to darkish brown.
Stem: Diameter 3-5mm Length 5-6cm, woody texture, colour varying from brown to white, slight bruising.

This is one I would comfortably ID, both the stem and the cap seem pretty clear.


This one however, I'm less sure about


The stem is too dry and already brown so I can test if blue bruising is present.
In most of them the stem goes from a brownish colour at the bottom to a silvery white at the top, where slight bluish bruising is often found, a few of these the stems are brown almost all the way up:

Like I said, I have spores printing as I'm typing and I will post those tomorrow night. Lots of these are about as big as I've seen subs, if they are indeed subs, so I suspect the age of the mushroom has to do with the id difficulty.
Here is a pic of the habitat I found some of them in:

And now here are some photos of random specimens I would like to learn about: #1

#2


#3


#4


#5


#6 And then there are these guys, the only blue I've seen aside from subs, tiny little things, growing in and around moist rotting wood with pine mulch.



Obviously this is a bit of a lengthy post with a bunch of photos, if anyone cares to stop by and read its really the sub ID I'm after, the rest I'm just curious about.
Thanks for your time guys, happy hunting and happy tripping, also shout out to ericos_bob, for being a fellow fisherman and also because we've been walking the same ground down south.

on the other side of the earth and i only now what i've seen in the AUS threads.
but for the one you're less sure about, the stem looks just like i see on older ovoids that are pretty dry when they bruise. take that for what it's worth (not much) and post the spore print when you get one. someone more knowledgeable will be along.

They all appear to be subs, a spore print will confirm.
