Honestly, I am not sure whether Sam and Lisa really are F2.....  Wouldn't this be weird if that was the case?:

wonder if Jess gave us the F4?

Jessica: I just don't really believe in the whole competition thing, because everyone is so different, and ultimately only one person will end up with Blake, and the right person will end up with Blake. You can't compete or manipulate that. It's either the guy is meant for you, or he's not. I think the only time you bring competition into it is if you're weighing up threats, and I really worked consciously not to compare myself to the other girls. I'm not capable of being them; I'm not capable of being as funny as Sam, or as talented with designing clothes as Lisa, or as baking as amazingly as Louise. So based on that, you just can't compare yourself; it's unhealthy, you hold yourself to a standard you won't meet.

Chantal agreeing on the F4:
Popsugar: So who do you think Blake had the strongest connections with?

Chantal: There's about four of them I think he has really lovely connections with, and I think the viewers would probably agree. I see the connection with Louise, I see the connection with Sam, and Lisa, and Jess. I really, really hope he chooses Sam, because I love her to bits and she's just my number one. She was like my little sister in the house and we bonded so much. We have a very similar sense of humour and we were on the same page. I think he'd be missing out if he didn't choose her.

Cool interview thanks for sharing! I just love her!!! she's a superstar wish she had an interior design show on tv and i totally think osher would be a ridiculously lucky guy if he dates her...speaking of which -- osher has been pretty open about how incredible he thought the women were and that he's single himself -- maybe he'd be open to exploring with her??? wouldn't that be totally fun -- i'd be a big fan of that couple
check: http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/tv/bachelors-chantal-spills-on-her-osher-gnsberg-crush/story-fn8yvfst-1227056435558

I found this piece quite intriguing from her in context of what blake said to chantal when she left -- he said they've been like kindered spirits from the first time they met - if that's the case then I do see how he could also have that kind of deep friendship connection with Sam who Chantal is so close to and sees eye-to-eye with -- i think those two have been really tight from the very beginning

PS: So who do you think Blake had the strongest connections with?

Chantal: There's about four of them I think he has really lovely connections with, and I think the viewers would probably agree. I see the connection with Louise, I see the connection with Sam, and Lisa, and Jess. I really, really hope he chooses Sam, because I love her to bits and she's just my number one.

Ali talks about the week that got hearts racing

Hi!

Last week Lisa put the moves on Blake at the cocktail party, this week she’s off to the races! I thought she’d get the one-on-one and I’m so glad she did. You can see the chemistry really building between them and they’re obviously getting comfortable expressing their feelings. Blake saying he’s open to the possibility of moving to Queensland because he respects how much Lisa loves her family made my heart melt.

The girls clearly didn’t love hearing about the massage part of the date though. It’s such a fine line because you want to share your experience but at the same time you don’t want the other girls feeling jealous or weird. Lisa was maybe a bit too upfront about it but I don’t think she did it to upset anyone.

Is Jess finally showing glimpses of jealousy? Seeing her face listening to Lisa – definitely! I always used to think to myself ‘I just need to concentrate on my own connection with Tim, nothing else matters,’ but jealousy is instinctive in those situations. The trick is keeping it under control!

That’s something the girls just couldn’t seem to do on the group date. Personally I think Jess is doing everything right, and I definitely don’t think Chantal playing spokesperson and confronting Blake after the Ghost Tour was the way to go – she wasn’t even there!

It’s great to see Louise coming out of her shell a lot more – she’s staking a claim for Blake’s affections in a big way. Has there ever been a solo date where a kiss happened that quick, and in a tub full of grapes? Their chemistry is so genuine and Blake clearly appreciated Louise saying she can see herself falling in love with him.

It’s so hard to know when the right time to confess those kinds of feelings is; the girls are probably still scared it won’t be reciprocated. It’s only really when you get to the stage where you realise he likes you just as much that you become confident enough to lay your feelings on the line like that.

Blake wanted the girls to help give something back, and the Heart Foundation ad was a great way to do it. I agree, Sam and Lisa’s ad was definitely the best – those two are hilarious, I could totally see them getting work as a comedy duo!

The Masquerade Party turned the traditional Rose Ceremony on its head and must have been a scary situation for the girls. They couldn’t believe Blake chose Laurina over Chantal, and I think her cold reaction was a defence mechanism. You don’t have to be happy for her but come on girls, at least pretend not to be quite so shocked! It just goes to show that at this stage, no one’s place in Blake’s heart is guaranteed.

Ali xoxo

it's interesting how he said that he's only now starting to watch a little bit cos it's too raw and "would you meet your ex right away?" so watching the interactions unfolding now seems less "raw and painful" than before? that might be an indicator for him being comfortable with watching the interactions in recent episodes which is strange since it seemed to be that the "raw emotions" for the multiple girls he had feelings for tend to tone down according to what he's hinting??

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2750495/It-s-raw-The-Bachelor-s-Blake-Garvey-hints-heartbreak-reveals-t-watch-year-s-s-painful.html

I found this radio interview of jess also interesting - jess isn't watching the show and... actually she slipped up and used past tense to say "was" vs "is" which was actually a clue that she may not have been picked-- her whole behavior during this kiis interview didn't seem like someone in love with blake:

http://kiis1065.com.au/shows/breakfast/videos/is-jess-the-one

I wonder if Blake is referring to watching interactions with Jess which were all too real so he didn't want to bring up raw emotions by watching but now that there are less and less jess intense interactions he can watch more?
