LOL. I blame my source. :funny:

Team #16 is revealed (based off TAR Australia's Instagram following them and them revealing it) - Stan Turek & Wayne Marino, Bodybuilders.
Also while we're on it, especially considering how this season aired and was filmed during COVID times, I would like to say that it is deeply irresponsible for Ten to cast Stan.
Wayne seems fine and all on his Instagram but Stan based on his Instagram:
-Is a flat earther (follows flat earthers)
-Has posted COVID conspiracy theories and anti-government and anti-lockdown and anti-mask posts
-Has promoted anti-vaccination memes
-Has posted racist rhetoric about COVID ("kung flu", "drop the Chinese", "nuke China")
-Has posted transphobic videos about COVID
So yeah. Considering how this kind of rhetoric is everything that goes against the COVID-19 era, it's super irresponsible for Ten to give someone like this a platform.

So much is going through my head! First off, being from Ireland I can't say I've ever heard of these guy's but regardless, if this Stan guy has been putting up anti-covid posts, etc, then I agree entirely with everything Gamer said above.
Secondly, adding yet ANOTHER stowaway team makes no sense, UNLESS production had always intended to add an additional team mid race. We've seen 2 teams leave due to injury, Alex & Jack who were replaced by Dwes & Katherine being brought back, and Shane & Deb being replaced by the Footy girls. So by right we're exactly where we would be had there been no injuries at all. So based on that it seems we were always gonna get a stowaway team. The injuries just resulted in us getting 2 instead of just the 1.
I'd be eager to hear others opinions on this, or if there's been any official confirmation on the reason behind it?

Not sure about our second intruders, but as far as MJ & Chelsea go, they had an interview before the Sunday episode where they said production never told them they were intruders and just told them when they were ready to go.
At this rate, since now we have a M/M and F/F intruder, I wouldn't be surprised if we get one last M/F intruder after next week's set of episodes :funny:
