Bachelorette Australia - Season 3 - Sophie Monk - Screencaps - *Sleuthing Spoilers* - Discussion

OK so I'm coming in with an early Crazy Bobette Theory.  I'm wondering if this could be F1:



His face isn't shown so if it is, TPTB are cleverly "hiding him in plain sight" from the outset.

He appears to be wearing a distinctive chunky ring on his right hand (pretty sure it's not a Toni May ring but you never know). Am going to cross-check with the pics we have of the guys to see if the suit and ring are a match for anyone we've seen so far.  

The SC is from the Facebook promo below.  He is seen right after Sophie makes this face:

ETA: Potential suit matches for Ryan and Luke but neither appear to be wearing a ring and guy in SC seems more broad chested.  If it is either of them my theory's out the window because neither will be F1 IMO.  Will be on the lookout for that ring on Wednesday....

I believe the guy in the SC is RJ (Ryan) based on the suit (black suit, white shirt, and black tie) as well as the ring (on right hand). Since RJ seems to have been eliminated by July 20 per his IG, he's MOT imo.

Regarding the SC where Sophie is looking at a man who is in a blue/grey toned suit. I believe that guy could be Jarrod.

In the 1st promo SCs, when Jarrod's suit is in shadow it is much darker and closer in color to the suit color for SCs where Sophie is looking at the man in front of camera

Based on the suit color, it is definitely not any of the other guys that have been highlighted in the promos (not Apollo, not Blake, etc) so the one that I can only think of that has been highlighted wearing a suit in more that color is Jarrod - otherwise it's an uknown. Will see when first ep airs.

Thanks @AAL - yep the ring and suit are both a match IMO and I agree Ryan is MOT.  Oh well, that was a short-lived theory!  I should have known TPTB wouldn't do something that clever.

Regarding the unidentified man in the background here I'm wondering if he will be from the UK?  Sportsbet seems to think there will be an Englishman in the mix and he looks British IMO.

@Bobette  yeah I think as has been for every season, the SCs will show the F1 and he will be obvious. TPTB don't have the time, budget!!, or imagination to bother straying from their formula imo

That said, I still think Sophie will be a great lead and give a good season and SCs so far make me think that the emphasis this season will be on Jarrod, Apollo, and Blake. 

If F2 is like Michael who was also shown in lots of promo SCs, then F2 this season could be more obvious like Michael was. If F2 not shown in promo SCs yet then he may be more hidden like Matty was in promos (although Matty's face was shown briefly in promos)

Too true!

I agree those three are getting maximum coverage right now and Blake and Apollo are in my potential Top 4 for sure. I know you're keen on Jarrod for F1 but I can't shake the feeling that F1 is yet to be revealed.

I'm waiting impatiently for the next Facebook profile or promo. I agree F1 will feature in some form before the show starts but I just don't feel anyone we've seen so far ticks all the boxes. Bring on the next bio, TPTB!

Just to confirm, as I posted above, the guy with the ring in the SC is indeed Ryan (RJ) seen in the front row in black suit and black long tie

Okay so going by the men and their suits for night one, the man who is seen in the camera and in shadow has to be wearing a blue/grey suit. 

If not Jarrod, then the other options may include James and his navy velvet tux or Jefferson in his suit. The other options just don't fit imo. Hopefully they show this scene so it can be confirmed.

Oh I like the look of a few of them. They are all so young though and no Stu so definately and intruder?

IA. Of course, I have no idea but I can't see Sophie at 37 choosing a man who is in his 20s. Stranger things have happened though. Also Jarrod living on a winery in WA is not going to move so if Sopie's not open to a completely different lifestyle on the other side of Australia, then he's not suitable either. All JMO.

I am just sleuthing for F1. Whatever is real-word stuff is post-show to me so just looking for F1 clues

Apologies, I meant to say he's actually from Victoria which is certainly a lot closer than WA!
