ID request for unknown mycelium patch

There is a bit of a back story here. I am located in Victoria - Australia. In July last year at the very end of p.subaeruginosa season I got into hunting, I looked everywhere and went on lots of drives and hunts. After 4 weeks of searching, I found some likely specimens that were very old and shriveled, they were the closest thing to something active I had found all season. I wasn't game to try them as I wasn't sure enough to risk it. However, I took the mycelium from their base and put it in a cardboard tek to grow it out. Then a few months later I put the colonized cardboard in my garden under a tree, with lots of woodchips over the top. A mixture of SoilWorx Eucy Mulch (eucalyptus wood chips) and pine chips and also some bark chips too. I watered it all through summer regularly. The mycelium has colinized all of it. I still need a confirmed ID though as I don't want to die eating the wrong shroom! So I would be very grateful if someone could positively id for me now as I have my first pins coming through that I noticed today. I can update this with more photos of them as they mature.
Habitat: Australia - Victoria. Originally found it under a eucalyptus tree in the late season last year around July. Grew the myc in new patch.
Gills: Has white veil, only pins visible now. The old specimens from last year were deteriorating and difficult to see.
Stem: Pins - white stem. Specimes from last year: Thick, solid, stained blue
Cap: Deteriorating
Spore print color: Couldn't get one last year, specimens too old and dried out
Bruising: Specimens from last year bruised blue. These pins too small, not ready to pick yet to see bruising.
Other information: The mycelium looks like spiders webbing, photos will be posted below.
HERE ARE THE SPECIMENS FROM LAST YEAR:

HERE IS MICROSCOPY OF THE SPORES FROM THESE SPECIMENS - COULDNT GET PRINT

HERE IS THE LOCATION OF THE NEW PATCH I PLANTED FROM THE MYCELIUM OF THESE MUSHROOMS

HERE IS AN IMAGE OF HOW THE MYCELIUM LOOKS IN THE PATCH NOW

HERE ARE TWO IMAGES OF THE PINS THAT I HAVE JUST FOUND GROWING FROM THE PATCH TODAY


I REALLY HOPE I DIDN'T WASTE MY TIME WITH THESE THINGS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE ID, I THINK AND HOPE THEY ARE SUBS!

In the specimens of last year: Leftmost specimen is Leratiomyces ceres, the rest are subaeruginosa.
The pins are subaeruginosa.

A few more pins popping up today (found 5 total today), but also one of the first pins I found now looks like the head of the pin has dissappeared? It is now convex at the top, instead of concave? Does anyone know what this means? I worry it is a sign of it aborting, or that a bird or something ate the head off, but the surface is very smooth so I don't think it was eaten or knocked off but I am just guessing.
