Bachelor Australia - Season 5 - Matty Johnson - Media Social Media - *Sleuthing Spoilers* #2

I've been stalking following Elise too.  She is awesome and would definitely be my F1 but IMO, she's not Matty's.  TWT

Of course time will tell...it's all about Matty getting his happy ending and the sleuthing to figure out how things shake out IMO. Like I have said many times I could care less who Matty chooses but when we find evidence contrary to what is the general consensus; some of us will choose to continue investigating until we solve the puzzle that is Matty's season

The bachelor instagram page has posted a gallery from the medieval date. It shows most of the girls sitting down having a one on one chat. The pic of him and Elise is very different from the others, they are very animated and leaning in to each other. Definitely some sort of connection we aren't being shown

I can't remember who posted they knew someone (who knew someone?) who works at Channel 10. The post was about the editors having to do a lot of work to keep Matty's feelings from being evident. I'm sorry if I haven't got this exactly correct.
Watching Matty's face when Elise was talking to him at the medieval GD he was very engaged. And at that same RC he had a broad smile on his face when he called Elise's name. I need to watch the RC from Episode 4 again to see Matty's face calling Elise last. (or to be really out there maybe it was a re-shoot, if this actually happens??)
IMO the way Matty looks at Elise and holds her tightly in the hockey date shows he is very comfortable around her. To me they have genuine chemistry. I am looking forward to seeing their date

Even if Matty and Elise had some sort of chat I am not buying that Elise is a front-runner per Belinda who was only on the show for less than 2 weeks out of 3 months of filming. 

Two weeks where Elise had no SD and no real quality time spent with Matty and was in the bottom 2 and called last at the last RC. Even Matty himself in the media talking about a "slow-burn" - so someone who was not on his radar in the beginning. 

I think it's very easy to see a connection when someone is spoiled as being in the F2, But so far, nothing to me indicates "front-runner" for Elise at all to me. Not even close. Slow-burn or dark horse for Elise? Most definitely. Yes. But definitely not front-runner atm. jmo

I agree Elise is far from being seen as a front runner. After Episode 4, Elise would probably be pegged most likely the one going home next episode!

According to what the producers are showing to the general audience of course Elise is not a front runner but according to sluething she is a front runner IMO. The point is that folks have rightfully locked in Laura as F1 and some of us have found evidence that it's not all the way locked, sealed and delivered for Laura as F1....just different approaches which is all good, makes for fun and good dialogue IMO.

@mercieme You have worded my thoughts exactly.

Re the bold, it was poster @Hearts_And_Roses that posted that information.

Thanks so much @mercieme

I find it interesting that Elise and Laura don't follow each other on IG. I don't buy that it is because they've been told not to. I also don't buy because if they are F2 it's because they don't want to see the posts of each other. This is not true going by Laura herself liking one of Elise's IG pics which means Laura def is looking at Elise's IG even if she isn't following her. 

What is also interesting to me is the pic Laura liked on Elise's IG is one of her in it. Yet Elise did not tag Laura in it. And Elise has not liked any pic of Laura's. Part of me wonders whether Laura liked that pic of Elise's deliberately (since no tag of hers and her in it). IDK it just seemed off and a bit weird to me, like Laura wanted Elise to know she liked Elise's pic that doesn't have her tagged it in. 

Which brings me to: Laura has said in interview when asked about closest friends in the house and she listed Elise. I am sorry but I don't see it. Not on the show or off. I am not buying that Laura and Elise are close friends. Doesn't mean they have bad blood or anything but close friends? Part of me wonders whether Laura is saying this intentionally to be seen in a certain light by the media. Same as her liking Elise's pic. Laura knows her IG activity is being watched (she has said as much in her interviews). 

IDK... just a feeling but something is suss about it... jmo

Bringing the Facebook pic over for any who haven't seen it. Matty looks so much more engaged with Elise than he is in any of the other pics
