Bachelorette Australia - Georgia Love - Season 2 - SM Media - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

The editors generally type cast constants into a slot. The over confident one, the competitive one, the super sweet one etc.
Typically the f1 does not come from one of these categories. The f1 while having some obstacle to overcome (sometimes major) is typically concerned with their journey with the lead. Edit wise.
So far it seems like Matty (super sweet) with a good, late connection with the lead. Maybe while they will show enough heat to get him to the end, will not be enough in this condensed format. Jake (shown as competative often) has the chemistry in spades with the lead but may fizzle out at some point. Lee from the edit has both, the commonalities (some of which we haven't even seen on screen but know from sleuthing exits) and the physical attraction.
Just basing these observations on what I am seeing. Possibly totally wrong and Matty may just be the late bloomer to the finish. It has happened (Sean/Catherine) but is not the norm. JMO.

Have they shown an obstacle for Lee?

Nope. Not that I could see.

That's how I would break it down as well. As for the other guys, Cam also has the super sweet but not compatible with the lead role. He's kind of like the Richie of the group during Sam's season. Clancy would most likely be friendzoned, or faith-zoned as we are calling it.

I'm not sure if this has any relevant but on Osha's twitter account, he posted a curious response to someone.

Someone posted " I'm sold" with #teamlee

to which Osher replied "Naw".


can someone bring the twitter across from Sep 28th ?
Osher seems to be very exited about Matty. JMO.

It doesn't look like anyone has an obvious obstacle as yet, but have to agree that Jake is getting the competitive edit so not sure if that's a no go or not for bachette. @see2love I think you had a theory on editing for bachette F1 if I'm not mistaken.

No-one has an obstacle yet IMO. What was Sasha's obstacle with Sam? I am not sure that the Bachelorette follows the same format as the Bachelor. I remember Sasha being jealous with the time Sam spent with the other guys though. I have noticed the camera panning to Lee already, as it did with Sasha, but this also happened with Nikki and we know she wasn't F1! Depends on what the sneaky production team have planned...

Nearly every contestant raved about Nikki and Richie (except Olena and Steph) and we know how that turned out. Somehow I get the sinking feeling that Matty is F2. His story is so F2 to me. I won't be as upset as with Nikki because I've already mentally prepared and Lee is a nice man. But still will be sad to see Matty be heartbroken if he's F2. This is just my speculation of course.

There actually were some that picked Alex as possible F1 - it's just that not many took notice of this as the edit was not favourable to Alex IMO.

Article about Lee. Interestingly, he comments that Cameron and Courtney are his biggest "rivals". Not too sure what to make of the last line in the article: “I’ve told my best mate and that’s it, just so I had someone to talk to,” he said.

this does not read well for Lee. He needed ' someone to talk to' ? Sounds ominous.


from sleuthing it is unlikely that either coutney nor cam are part of the f3 so he is talking as far as the current status of the show and how he started feeling insecure. well at least we have a potential obstacle .

I am wondering why he would need someone to talk to as well - why not tell his mother the outcome?

Sasha was to afraid to tell Sam her feelings. There was a slight jealousy vibe but IMO that wasn't the angle they were going with him as the producers cut out his meltdown. He was about to leave the show hence why Sam gave only him another SD. He told the story after the finale.

They all seem to be opening up to Georgia so I can't see that happening just yet but a number of them haven't had a SD yet. Jake IMO is getting more of the jealous edit but as do most of the contestants that have the First SD.
