Bachelor Australia - Season 4 - Richie Strahan - F1-F6 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

I watched the last 2 episodes and thought wow he really did talk about the future with Nikki, but then the last few episodes I have really seen Faith come through, and he definitely was full on kissing with her.

I find it fascinating how differently we all see things. I currently is it as

F5 - Faith (my polka dot girl)
F4 - Alex
F3 - Rachael
F2 - Olena
F1 - Nikki

At least we agree on Faith. Lol

Sam Wood spoke about the future with Lana and we know how that worked out. I think the channel has some kind of a "Bachelor Bible" where all the standard phrases were written in. And every time before they start with the filming they are passing it to the new Bachelor to learn them.

Shot in the dark ... but still F1 Olena, F2 Nikki, F3 Alex, F4 supposedly Rachael gets HTD (if I'm reading right your sleuthing) and from the "quotes" I can see the angle for Rachael in front of Faith, even tho' there's a better vibe with Faith, but only on a friendship level. So F4-F3 are more physical "attraction", F2 more "serious intentions" angle ... but ultimately (you know my idea). In case Nikki wasn't F2, then only Alex could fit that spot, not Rachael, but considering there's a child involved, I would think that Richie makes a decision regarding before the finale - JMO.

IMO Olena and Alex will definitely be in Bali... the 3rd girl based from other sleuthers is prolly Rachel.

F4- Nikki
F5- Faith

I can't wait to see if my predictions are true.  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

IA and I´m going with you.

F5-Faith
F4-Nikki
F3-Alex
F2-Rachael
F1-Olena

I think what they are going to do now is building up the "connection" with Rachael after Nikki`s exit to make the viewers think that she has a chance. But it´s only clever editing and not more.

I am no too sure who the F2 is. I want it to be Rachael though as it could be very heartbreaking for Alex to be one of the last 2 standing only to be rejected in the end. I mean of all the girls, she was the most into Richie, she has very high hopes, not to mention being the white rose recipient. It would be less cruel if Rachael is F2.

If Alex is f2 could explain her clingy crazy person edit as girls in exit interviews have said she didn't seem to cry that much jmo

I can't be certain, but I have started to think that Nikki may not even make it to the top 3. It is not bias, because before Olena's second date, Nikki was the person I thought would win and I even placed a bet for her. Now I have the feeling that Rachael makes it to the top 3, because of the previews seen of Rachael and Richie walking on the beach. I don't think that is Scaraborough because in May the weather in Perth was not sunny  and it was in fact quite cool.

I have no doubts that Olena goes to Bali, and I think that was discussed already and there seems to be an agreement about it here. I am dubious about Alex and Nikki. IMO one of them won't make it to the top 3. In my opinion there is one person who leaves on Wednesday: Faith; and  I think  Olena and Rachael will be in the top 3.

If the top 3 are Olena, Rachael, and Alex, then I think the top 2 will be Alex and Olena, and anything can happen there. I haven't discarded the possibility of Alex winning, especially not considering her actual Sportsbet odds, which have been consistent for weeks.  IF Alex doesn't make it to the top 3, and the top three are Olena, Rachael and Nikki, I believe then Olena will be F1.

Now, something that reinforces my position about Nikki and her connection with Richie is Steph's frankness.  I infer that Steph  knows  the name of the top 2 contestants or at least the name of the top 3. If Nikki were one of them, I don't think Steph would be saying what she said about Nikki and Richie. One thing is supporting your friend saying she will be the winner, or that you think she may win, but it is very different to say what Steph said about Nikki . Steph clearly and confidently stressed that she never saw a deep connection between Nikki and Richie and that she still doesn't see it. IMO, there is no way Steph would say that if she knew Nikki is at least the runner-up.This is JMO.

My thoughts are Olena F1, Alex F2, F3/F4 between Nikki and Faith, both endearing.

The F2 is usually the woman the bach shares the most passionate, sexy kisses with. The woman who is most physical with the bach and the one who from editing, has the most physical chemistry with the bach.

The F3 is the one who after editing is made out to be the darling girl next door, the fan fave, the one who most people want to win.

F4 usually has something outrageous happen during htd.
imo.

Didn't someone on here mentioned that Rachel was following a friend of Richie earlier in sleuthing? Was it you [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] ?

Yes, I know that, but the person I replied to lives in NY

Thanks for the background info on Olena [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. Understanding the Australian way is pertinent to this sleuthing. You see many people have commented on the difference in Olena's culture and how her family would feel during htd due to the culture difference. Also some commenting on how Nikki is more suited to Richie because Olena has a different culture etc.

Being far off in good ole' England, I appreciate the clarification.

Out of the F5 Rachel has been pretty much screaming on SM look at me. Was she ever papped ? And Megan who was photographed with Rachel on a dinner date said she might be a dark horse. 

Rachel is full on board for Richie showing her competitive nature. During one of her CP moments, I can't remember the exact words, but she said something like "I hope" after a comment of going further ?!? 
I think Ep 10
