Elise Stacy - Bachelor Australia - Season 5 - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

I love that photo so much @Bobette

Bobette wrote:OK so I just had a thought.  Matty was granted "mental health leave" in the week leading up to April 10.  Then on April 11 we have the above date of Matty & Elise, in which he looks pretty darn pleased.  

What if he took leave because he was having to go on dates with women he wasn't that into and it was getting to him (hello, that's the show, but I digress...). It was said at the time he was having trouble hiding his feelings for his favourite.

So what if they said, OK, take a week off, and we'll arrange a darn-tooting, bells-and-whistles all-day & night date for you with your favourite girl so you can re-connect with her and cheer up a bit?  Hmmm?

I buy this theory. The show even gave Matty his own lemonade stand! Making lemonade out of lemons?

That's so poetic, @AllAboutLove - I love it!

@Bobette watch me waxing poetic by the end of this I love a good love story to watch! So hoping this season has one

haha love it!!!

Honestly, if Elise is everything I am expecting her to be, and Matty chooses her over the "self-confessed flirt"/model Laura, and it happens in an unexpected (to the uneducated, non-sleuthing audience) way - i.e. the hidden/slow burn edit - I think this could be the redeeming season the flagging Aussie franchise so desperately needs.  

Here's hoping.

If he had as much trouble hiding his feelings as has been reported, hopefully everything will become clear once we actually see him with the girls.

I don't want to be the bearer of bad news - body language in this pic is WRONG WRONG WRONG!
Matty isn't leaning towards Elise, look at ANY photo of him in GL's season - when he kisses Georgia he leans in. This to me resembles Richie and Nikki - where she is constantly initiating intimacy by grabbing him his face. Body language says a lot, Matty's shoulders are facing more forward with his head turned, Elise in leaning in. This isn't Matty's F1 girl, I'll say another fan fave set up to get her heart broken. IMO

@LoveAndHappiness....we all see things differently and that's the beauty of this forum.  Just a friendly reminder to use "IMO" in your posts (since you don't know for a fact that Elise is not F1 and also it's your opinion about the body language which can't be proven yet). That way the moderators of the forum don't have to edit your posts thanks

I tend to agree with your observations @LoveAndHappiness and am on record making similar comment at the start of this thread when the BTS pics fist came out  I really didn't see a connection at all.

However I have found body language can be a red herring on this show (a recent example if you watched it was NZ Bach where to me the Lead kissed his F1 as if she was his Great Aunt at a funeral, such was the lack of passion, while he looked like he wanted throw the F2 down on the bed that instant).  Another example would be Matty and Georgia - I personally saw much more passion between G & M than G & L.

Not sure whether it's because the Lead is told they have to hide their true feelings, or if they're trying to make the most of the time they have with the other contestants before they "settle down", or if it's clever editing, but for me, good/bad body language is not always a reliable indicator of how the Lead feels.

@Sundy, if Elise is F1 I will think you are psychic. You always can pick them!   

Elise definitely lives in Perth, WA per her FB bio. So Matty being in Perth pre-season definitely makes me think of the possibility of SHV if Elise is F1. Plus, Elise's SM activity is in line with post-FRC filming. Add in Elise tweeting about moving to Sydney and SM clues definitely can be a BIG clue! 
Now to watch if Elise gets 1on1 time shown in first episode and possibly gets Ep 5 SD (which is a F1 stat for previous F1s). 

@mercieme did you post about Elise's possible family on SM? Any of them followed Matty on their SM when you were able to see? TIA

@allaboutlove, I didn't check their follows unfortunately and their IGs are all private now.

On another note, if the picture of the WA girls appear later this week wearing different cloths from the meet and greet premier episode; it could be a possibility that the pictures were taken just this past week and that could be another clue that she was in Perth at the same time as Matty. We should keep an eye out if they end up releasing a pic of the WA girls.
