Bachelor Australia - Season 3 - Sam Wood - (Male) - SM - IG - Media - *Sleuthing* - *Spoilers* #3

She also half broke down at the beginning of the interview. Sandra Sully the blonde woman who Rosie references in her blogs is the host at the end of the couch and was quite strong in the questioning.

Lana really grew on me and I feel badly that she is left so brokenhearted. Go to Bali and find peace and quiet!

Sam really did a good job reassuring the girls he didn't want. I am even of the mindset now that he never "let" Jacinda or Bec go. Both girls came out and said they wanted to leave. We all know that TPTB will make it so it looks like the lead is letting those who want to leave on their own go - like it was their choice.

And Sam coming out saying it was "always" Snez? Yeah right. Art proved it was from first episode. If it was "always" Snez Sam would have played the game and the other F4 girls a bit differently. And it is how he played the game that defines his character, not theirs. If he knew all along then even that never stopped him from acting like he didn't.

As to Snez saying she hasn't watched any scenes except hers? And that the Lana scene of Sam grabbing Lana's butt, groping her, was too confronting? Yeah, this sounds like another F1 (Whitney) who couldn't handle watching anything but her own scenes and look where that ended up.

Studio 10: "You almost need an acting degree to take on the role (as lead)"

Safe to say, Channel Ten is not a fan of Sam Wood... even the Studio 10 hosts questioning his sincerity and behaviour.

No doubt there was ever going to be an ATFR. If his F1 couldn't even watch the lead then yup, the dude was doing his playing part and is only making it worse, imo, by saying Snez was "always" the one. The only "always" was the physical and that FRC emphasized that. The peen competition was stiff. Did I say that? Oops. Well, his name is Sam Wood aka Woody.

Well done ladies... you should be proud of yourselves and you did nothing wrong!

If Snez was always the one then he's a better actor than I expected.

Why go to such great lengths with the girls? Just speak the truth Sam. Snez please watch the entire series. Thanks.

There is so much 'juice' in this article

Lana‘s tears after watching Sam dump her during The Bachelor finale

Wrong. The hosts of studio ten might not like Sam but channel 10's top executives and etc like him. They've said in multiple interviews how they liked him and how they are all for him using the exposure  to grow his brand from this as well. Plus, the finale brought in record ratings. Remember when people thought the ratings would drop after Heather left?

I can see why Heather has been someone she remained in contact with post-show and throughout these past 4 months. Even in that Studio 10 video you can see Heather's emotions while Lana is speaking. She gets it, probably the most of anyone. I am glad she had the support of the girls there with her.

She can finally move on now.

Hardly "wrong". They said the same thing about Blake Garvey. They will protect their brand. And as long as they get the ratings that's all they care about - not the person. To this day they say Blake is "genuine" and the proof is in the pudding, no ATFR and preferring to emphasize the other Sam and even Sam's edit this season was all there.

As for the ratings? Those are compared to 2014's season not episode to episode.

In fact, even in comparison to Season 1 there was a decrease in ratings from last week to this week when comparing the two and Season 1 had more than double the increase in viewers than this season. And yes, they had less viewers since Heather left when comparing past season trends from F4 to F1.

Here's more on that... https://www.bachandbachettefans.net/t3143p912-bachelor-australia-season-3-sam-wood-male-sm-ig-media-sleuthing-spoilers-2#864689

Hmmmm....other leads have said their F1 was always the one, how is this now different? And the leads will  never get a pass for doing this, even Sean Lowe who is one of the most reputable bachelors was accused of leading people on. Rochelle (who was still hurting a year afterwards) also claimed Tim Robbards led her on......Dani claimed Art led her on....next year we will have another lead that will be accused of leading a contestant on, the cycle of reality TV that will never end.

Heart break is hard for anyone to take and my prayer for anyone that was hurt is to find healing and closure very soon and also the great love of their lives which has proven to be the case for most contestants that were not chosen IMO.

Of course all leads lead the other girls on. That's par for the course. The difference is that Sam Wood has come out and disregarded what he felt at all for the others and has claimed he felt this way day one and yet at the same time doesn't say what he said/did was a lie either. He wants it both ways.

And all those leads (other than Blake, although he did get his scathing on The Project) get to face the music on ATFR at least and the women never got that with Sam on stage.

And Snez not wanting to watch anything else of Sam with the other girls b/c it is too "confronting" is just like Whitney. There's a reason there is no ATFR and there's no way Sam would risk not being with his F1 post-show. He's already proven that he can "act" both on the show and post-show and while all the pics of "bliss" can be posted now there are no plans of anything concrete other than a very long-distance relationship which will only help Sam to maintain his relationship, imo, since there's no commitment required of him other than a few visits here and there.

Some see the F1 story or prefer someone who ends up being F1 from the first episode and it may be it turns into a real story down the road. For me, I see this lasting as long as it suits Sam and his image. JMO and I will be the first to give him props if he proves me wrong.  :Nod:

IA Mercieme.

It could easily have been Snezana at studio 10 today crying that she got led on and dumped. It always is the case especially with the final 2. Would it have been any different or better if Lana was F1 and Snez was hurting? No. It is a horrible situation the format of this franchise but someone always ends up on the short end.

I hope she gets closure quickly and she will find her own man in due time. Happens all the time
