but it did not last more than 3 episodes IMO
Once she went thru the nervousness, she could have a normal conversation.
IF he is the one, then I am sorry for him that she deliberately picked Michael under his nose for extra time after not one but two group dates, reserving this special fun facts cards for michael (meaning she took a lot of time to think about multiple cards to write personal things about her) and considering that he offered her the 4 drawing and she gave nothing back to him.

Her reaction at wippa sealed the deal for me as well as the kiss avoided in the vineyards and the not so happy look on the air balloon (or boat). The mother who seem to do not appreciate her as well.

Again, he WAS the frontrunner for sure for the first 3 episodes. I have no doubt. but as she said... after that it went downhill.

.... IMO

Good thing we are close to the finale so we can finally KNOW if we were seeing the truth or were fooled! With this show, I never put all my eggs in the same basket!

It's a surprise not to sleuthers but to viewers.
Viewers don't expect FIR Sasha to win - no matter how obvious it is (and it is because it is "too" obvious is the reason).

The poll is 82% Michael and 18% Sasha.
Based on the poll it doesn't matter what is seen on the show, viewers see Sasha as an underdog in the polls and least likely to win.
Thus that poll itself proves viewers don't expect Sasha to win.

So... *surprise*

I most be watching the show from another parallel reality!  In my reality...he is obviously ahead!

It's not my viewpoint but viewers viewpoint.
I see Sasha as F1 and always have - the viewers don't.
Those are the poll numbers as of this week and not built upon (like the TEN leaderboard ones are).
It is, IMO, because of this season started straight after Sam Woods and audiences are prepped to expect that the obvious one (Sasha) WON'T win (just like Heather).
When things are too obvious people doubt. It's just the way it is.
Has nothing to do with the show, or chemistry, or whatever.

As more guys get booted from Bachelorette mansion in quest for Sam Frost’s heart, many not-so-single once they’re out

http://www.couriermail.com.au/news/queensland/as-more-guys-get-booted-from-bachelorette-mansion-in-quest-for-sam-frosts-heart-many-not-so-single-once-theyre-out/story-fnihsrf2-1227565290574

SHE has been famously unlucky in love herself, but could Bachelorette Sam Frost be a good luck charm for blokes?

As more guys get booted from the Bachelorette mansion in the quest for Frost’s heart, it seems many of them are finding themselves not-so-single once they’re out.

After a terribly awkward “sudden death date” last week, Frost sent home local favourite Tony.

But Tony wasn’t left broken-hearted for long, and has since revealed to Confidential that he has been dating a new lady for more than a month.

The handsome airline cabin manager even credited the show with giving him some extra confidence to put himself out there in the search for love.

Tony is far from alone – owl-loving Queenslander Drew has also been spotted with a new lady, while the fun-loving Davey has told Confidential he is also seeing someone new.

Meanwhile, with only five blokes left, tensions have been rising. While some of the guys are laying low since the show finished filming, one of the front-runners, Brisbane soccer player Michael, has been doing anything but.

The handsome sports star has become a new paparazzi favourite, and he seems to be lapping up the attention.

Not only has he been hitting the town with fellow Bachelor Richie, but on Friday night accompanied a teenage girl to her high school formal. She was later revealed as a family friend.

But a source told Confidential not everyone was happy with the attention Michael’s appearance caused. They told us the “publicity stunt” took “the focus away from the other students”.

Luckily for Michael, most of the feedback from fans on social media has been positive.

But he still has one more lady to win over and that’s Sam herself. Stay tuned this week!

If this was true... ALL and EACH OF US could win!!

^^ That story above is rubbish.
Richie hasn't been in Brisbane at all.
The pic Michael posted of him with Richie was from filming.
The articles are nothing more than people looking at the contestants IG pics and trying to come up with stories.

The funny thing is that using the show for fame is only acceptable if the guy is F1 and favorite... which in reality they ALL love the fame and publicity... heck the selfies of most of them on SM.

The issue here is that Michael was already a celebrity before and he has a business to run. He would be silly to do not use the show to promote his business IMO. Why be shy and coy?

Unless I am deeply mistaken, they all have a fame vibe and a voyeur tiny bit in them all to be part of a TV show with a crew around them all the time, even in the most intimate moments kissing the lead, hugging etc.

So yes. it is funny how it will be awful for a non favorite to use the media and cool for a favorite to be seen in selfies and events.

that would be awesome !!!!!!!

^ That's par for the course. Don't think anyone disputes that. They are all on TV for similar reasons, no better no worse. Some I like how they handle the fame, some not so much. But that is always subjective.

I personally have my faves but I don't get involved in them personally (meaning I don't comment on their SM, etc). To me they are just contestants on a TV show. Some I like, some I don't like but I leave it at that and use this forum to sleuth or in some cases be a fan of them from a distance here only.

I think that is what I like about this forum... it provides a distance between myself and the contestants. They are TV contestants to me and while I will follow them on SM, I know that in order for any contestant to interact with me they will have to search out themselves (google and then come to this forum) and find my comments/posts about them. If they do that, then that's on them. It's why I like that I can comment freely on contestants on this forum. It's never personal for me since it is not TO them even if it is about them. And "them" is not even their true selves anyway. Just a filtered edit/SM/Media one.

Could it be that in Australia the media fantasizes and make stories even more that here in USA!

I think it is just a worldwide thing.
Gossip is as old as time.
The internet just makes it easier for saturation of such.

ITA. The same. BTW, when I tried to quote you I "pressed" on the esclamation mark... So I hope I didn't make any "report"... Da** i hate writing "online" on my phone, I really don't understand how all of you can do it. I hardly see what i type on the screen.

I remember when Hailey-RFL, my favorite, came here to answer our questions, I didn't feel like writing much to her or ask, but i was more talkative with Sarah (F5)... I often post here as if I'm writing directly to Nick or Heather, but other than them possibly reading any of it (10% of slim chances) i'm having fun "saying" things as if I know them, which I obviously don't.
