SCOUT

With just three contestants remaining on season two of The Bachelor NZ, Scout asked a number of high-profile New Zealanders who they think will win Jordan's heart.


SCOUT

TEAM NAZ
Naz is a favourite to win The Bachelor. / TV3


ART GREEN - The Bachelor season one
Team Naz. I think that they seem to have the most genuine and natural connection.

HALEY CROOKS - Mai FM presenter
100% hands down I'm #TeamNaz and have proudly been since day one. I love that she's sassy and not afraid to speak her mind but is also a sweetheart deep down. I support Naz because she reminds me of myself. She's a boss bitch, confident, real, independent but beneath a hard exterior has a whole lot of love to give. Who doesn't want a girl that has it all? Get it Naz!

DOM HARVEY - The Edge
"#Team Naz. Lets be honest, she has been the highlight of this series. She was the first Bachelorette whose name you remembered and the one that EVERYBODY has talked about from the very first episode. Initially, I thought she was just being kept in to stir s***. But it seems like her and Jordan have a really good thing going on.

CHRIS MAC- Six 60
I'd say Naz, not only because they seem to have a relationship that has gone beyond just the positive aspects of each other's personalities but also because I get the sense that Jordan is genuinely afraid of what she might do to him if he chose someone else.

TEUILA BLAKELY - actress
I haven't been watching The Bachelor regularly, but it's impossible not to know what's going on. From what I've seen and heard, I'm going to go with Naz. I think [Jordan and Naz] would compliment each other and actually do genuinely like each other. Plus she's the only brunette left too, .

RACHEL GLUCINA - Scout editor
Naz is the clear winner judging by the genuine connection and affection the pair share. She has been a breath of fresh air on the show which could have been so humdrum and predictable had it not been for Naz's big personality and openly competitive spirit.

TEAM ERIN


Erin is the dark horse of the competition. / TV3

 
CLINTON RANDELL - The Edge
"#TeamErin. Is there any other team! This girl is drop dead gorgeous and has blossomed slowly like the beautiful flower she is. If Jordan doesn't choose her it will be his biggest regret in life, FYI don't take him back either Erin if he does cock this up."

LANA SEARLE - More FM
"I'm backing Erin - she's the dark horse of the competition and by far the sweetest girl in the mansion."

BELLA HENRY - Paul Henry Show
"I'm team Erin because she's the only one left that doesn't require psychiatric help."



SCOUT

TEAM FLEUR

Fleur made a connection with Jordan early on. / TV3


ALICIA COWAN - Bachelorette
"I’m backing Fleur because she has had a strong and deep connection with Jordan from early on. I believe she is the ‘Best Match for The Bach’.  They have bonded on a level like no other and he would be very lucky to have such an affectionate, caring, worldly, adventurous, real, gracious, intelligent woman."

JAY JAY HARVEY - The Edge
"#TeamFleur. I actually love Naz, and think Erin is an awesome chick too, but I prefer the 'spunk' of Fleur's attitude and I think she and Jordan have the best chemistry. Plus their kisses are pretty steamy too!!"

SHARI FLAVELL - Bachelorette
"I'm team Fleur because she's an absolute laugh and such a good time, and so is Jordan! I'd love to become their 3rd wheel friend."



And... TEAM MIKE

PAUL HENRY - Broadcaster
"I'm Team Mike because Mike and Jordan are the only two left that are perfectly suited."

AllAboutLove wrote:From SM/Media I'd think Naz is likely F1. From edit, I'd think Fleur.

From past sleuthing though, I notice usually SM can tell the more accurate story. It may do it this time.

Regardless of F1, I see no love story here. Just an F1 story. Whoever that is - I think there's a case for each of the girls.

Jordan Mauger may not have even picked his leading lady yet, but we are already anticipating the reunion special.

The Bachelor NZ: Women Tell All, will air on May 10, the night after we see whether Mauger chooses Fleur, Erin, or Naz. The special will see them congregate one last time, to talk season goss, discuss behind-the-scenes highs, lows, life updates, and confront Mauger once and for all.

The Bachelor says he is excited about getting closer to finding "the one". "But I also knowing full well that I have to break up with a bunch of incredible woman to get to her - that is never an easy task."

Mauger will have to face the 22 scorn women in the reunion special, who no-doubt have a burning question or two for the Bachelor.

Here are the 10 things we hope get brought up...

1. Naz's Hitlist

Claudia and Naz speculating about their fellow bachelorettes.
TOM HOLLOW

Naz made herself an early frontrunner for The Bachelor bully when she decided to compile a hit list, a list of girls she wanted to "get rid of" one by one. She claimed it was because they were bullies, put other girls down, and were not there for love.

How do the ladies feel knowing they were on the list, and what does Mauger think about it?

2. THAT thesis.

Former bachelorette Rebecca is adamant she wasn't "studying" Mauger during her stint on the show, despite her thesis subject exploring the weird world of reality television and more specifically, finding love on TV.

Was it a coincidence that the 33-year-old was given the boot the night she revealed what she was studying? The Bachelor needs to shed some light on how he felt about this one.

3. Metz' early exit

Metz delivers the bad news to Jordan: she's going home.

Remember when Samoan Princess Metz hit the road early? Her reasons for leaving were obscured with producers cutting away from her heart to heart with the Bachelor.

4. Speaking of early exits...

Nicole said she had to go home because she needed to be close to family: "I'm sorry I have to go, but it seems like the right thing," she told Mauger.

What has the smiley bachelorette been up to?

5. That driver?

Okay, so not bachelorette-related as such, but what ever happened to the driver from episode one, and is he still sad?

   Limo driver looks so sad. Like he auditioned to be the Bachelor and was cast as driver instead #TheBachelorNZ pic.twitter.com/WzGzerljdF

6. Shari's Tinder success

Undoubtedly the bachelorette with the best sense of humour, Shari was forced to explain her Tinder profile.

Now that she has left the show, we wonder how the dating world's been treating her.

   Back to tinder? #thebachelornz

7. Roseless from day one

How do the ladies who never made it past the first cocktail party feel? Will they even turn up?

There was pilates instructor Emily, pillow-throwing Harmony and the friendly blonde, Freya.

8. Still peas in a pod?

From day one, Naz and her sidekick Claudia were as thick as thieves.

We want to know if the friendship has survived outside of the mansion.

9. Fleur's telling-off

Fans wer shocked last week when Mauger popped Fleur in the bottom two the same night she made a wee joke at his expense.

"Are you serious?" he asked her. It looks like it might have been an over-reaction, so what did Fleur think?

10. The Bachelorette NZ?

Last year's reunion dropped the bombshell that they would be looking for contestants for season two. This time, we're hoping to see Mike Puru's lips utter the words, "The Bachelorette NZ".

What do you hope they talk about in The Bachelor NZ: Women Tell All? Let us know in the comments.

The Bachelor NZ: Women Tell All screens on Tuesday, May 12 at 7.30pm on  TV3.

The Bachelor NZ reunion: what we want to know

Idlemess wrote:If not F1,  I still think that Naz has sold herself as the next reality/media star or the first Bachelorette. She did say that she can see herself on more reality shows.

If not F1, I can see Fleur being the Bachelorette.

If not F1, I can't see Erin being the Bachelorette and not showing any interest in wanting to be.

Fleur and Naz are competitive and naturally more "invested" to win.
