Grubs head coach Josh picked up young guns Jayden Okunbor (career debut) & Payne Haas (career debut) off waivers/free agency while releasing the loose as a goose Jimmy “The Jet” Roberts (season 31.00ppg, 2 games) and the injured Dylan Napa (season 10.00, 1 game).
B!tches dropped the injured Aaron Woods (season 48.67ppg, 3 games) and disappointed Elliot Whitehead (season 39.75ppg, 4 games) for young second rower Marata Niukore (career debut) and former Avenger Brian Kelly (career 38.67ppg, 3 games).
