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

@Dirty Street Pie I love this photo

Thanks for bringing that pic over @Dirty Street Pie....I am going to copy it into Elise's thread to decorate it

And as I have said all along as someone who listened to all the interviews, the slow burn / dark horse was volunteered by Matty & he seemed happy talking about it IMO.

  this I definitely have seen too. Matty has definitely pushed that narrative. imo

OTOH, Matty has liked a pic of him and Laura together and the only pic he has liked so far of him with any of the girls from this season. And Laura happens to be spoiled F1.

If Laura ends up indeed as F1, then Matty pushing the slow-burn narrative for F2 (and if it's Elise) then essentially Matty is pushing a narrative that he himself had when he was F2. Even if part of his "script" post-show, this means Matty is pushing for an underdog F2 which makes me wonder how naive he may be to the backlash he will receive imo by doing so.

If Elise ends up as F1, then Matty liking a pic of him and Laura along with the OTT media for Laura is also pushing a narrative which is something media can write about and use to say Matty is still liking pics of Laura even though he is with Elise and start making up crazy story headlines like "Matty chose wrong. Matty regrets his decision" blah blah blah.

Either way, even if Matty is being a puppet, on IG and in media, imo it's not going to end well in the end if this season ends up with a split audience for F1... Hopefully not

IMO, the fizzling out is probable Elora and Lisa

Yes that is exactly what I have been saying @leapoffaith.

It's probably been discussed before but do ANY of the girls follow Laura on IG?  I couldn't find any of the top of my head. Given that her profile is public I would assume that some of the girls who were friendly with her would naturally follow her and she would be unable to control that. So why aren't they?  I can only assume that they have been told not to. Why have they been told not to?  It seems too obvious to me that it's because she is F1. that IMO is just too obvious. The more that time goes buy the more I suspect Laura may be a decoy. It may just be me overthinking things though

@Sundy....I have to dig AAL's post up, it's buried somewhere but she did an analysis of who is following who and I think for sure Lisa and Alix are following Laura's "@ladyandacat" which is her personal IG.

Great thank you. Thought I was going crazy. Didn't try Alix but tried Lisa. Perhaps it's her settings. I look up Laura and click followers and no one comes up but then go to the individual girls and click following and she shows up

@Sundy I think florence and tara also follow her on @ladyandacat account

@Sundy quite a few of the girls follow her. As an example, her last post was liked by Florence, Cobie, Sian, Lisa, Alix, Laura-Ann and Simone. She's also followed by Elora, Tara and Nat, from memory.

We did a run down of who follows who the other day and interestingly Laura and Elise don't follow each other, yet they both follow the other top girls.

Although season five is rating higher than any other for Ten, the series has not been without its problems.

The winner of Johnson's heart was photographed with him last year while filming the finale in Thailand by two well-known Sydney paparazzi.

Ten won an injunction at the NSW Supreme Court to stop the paparazzi from publishing the 318 photographs or disclosing the identities of the home visits and the finale – another costly move amid the ailing broadcaster's financial struggles.





Picture of Matty J mansion....just wondering the poles in the backround almost look like the ones in the Laura SC of them on a couch which we thought could be Thailand ? but now looking at this pic and then someone mentioned a blanket that was similar that he had at the mansion i am starting to think that SC could be at the mansion and not Thailand?!?! what do you guys think??

@Leapoffaith....interesting find....I remember AAL asked us to check if if those poles could be located in the mansion but we couldn't find it at the time. Poster @Amalia was the one that located the blanket on the tan chair so now I see those tan chairs in the background of the mansion pic you have posted.

@Sundy....are you able to zoom in on Laura's SC speculated as Thailand and see if there is anything in the background that could be tan chairs or is that SC outdoor? Thanks.
