HA HAA.  Yes I can imagine.  

Pretty clear IMO Ali told TPTB she wants to move to Melbourne - and just like a Fairy Godmother, they waved their magic wand and *poof* literally a third of the men are from Vic.

I'm uploading the individual pics now - will be on the no discussion thread shortly.  So we have a Dan, Daniel and Danny.

ETA: OK, all pics have been uploaded to the SM ND thread and also the ones for the individual guys.  These three don't have individual threads since they weren't on the Gladiator date.  I assume they will all be sent home night 1.

I have to say, while the stylist did a terrible job with Ali's outfits this season IMO, the guys look SHARP!

Here's Brendan's IG.  Looks like an interesting guy.  Well travelled.  https://www.instagram.com/brendancav/

Thanks @spangler you found it before I left - editing now.

Just spent some time looking at which guys are following eachother - and which guys aren't - and now my head is spinning.  

Why's that @Bobette? Are we expecting to see some "mean boys" or boy cliques?

Yeah possibly. It's just interesting to see who's following who and even the order they've added each other sends hints about who got along and who didn't, who liked who the most (you'd probably add your besties first), who didn't hang round long etc.

Also I'm thinking the guys that got the furthest would probably be tight with each other, but then the F2 might not want to be following the F1 if they got their heart broken and so on and so forth so looking at it from that angle too.

Also some guys following absolutely everyone (eg Lambchops) others more selective and only following a few. Also some guys following people from past seasons which makes me think they're excited to be part of the brand, others not so much.

TL/DR: I'm probably over thinking it.

Examples of the kind of things I find interesting:

Bobette wrote:Charlie already laying the groundwork to date Elora on BiP by the looks of it.  Absolutely no way he's F1 IMO. You'd think TPTB would tell them to be more careful about things like this.

ETA:  Turns out he's following just about every girl likely to be in Paradise and several of the boys.  Added some even before guys from his own season.  Gotta keep your options open I guess!

If he's being this sloppy it's possible he goes out much earlier that I first thought.  I'd think an F2 would have someone watching them a lot closer.

And yet Todd is following only guys from his season (no one from other seasons that I can tell, no potential BiP dates. It just feels like his SM might be getting more closely monitored.

Also he followed Bill, Pete, Danny and Daniel (who I assume he got along best with) first.  Then there's a BIG gap of other follows, then he adds Taite.  Then another gap and Ali just recently.

I definitely feel like it might be Taite F1 and Todd F2, while Charlie starts out looking like a front runner and will get short odds on Sbet but then be a "shock exit" at F3, 4 or possibly even earlier.

So Cheyne's the guy in the in the kilt I was asking about on the screencaps thread.  He, Brendan and kangaroo scrotum guy must go first since they're not on the Gladiator date.

Ow! I'm from South Australia (been here all my life). It's not as bad as some people say (all depends on the sort of things you're into I guess). I do occasionally laugh at some of the jokes though like "What's the best thing to come out of Adelaide? The road to Melbourne."

I just hope we don't get any more celebrities.  Although someone on Twitter did suggest Judith Lucy which would absolutely amazing - a cynical 50 year old alcoholic self-loathing comedienne with an acerbic wit, disastrous dating history and terrible choice in men.  Now that sounds like quality TV viewing if ever I heard it.  

The only celebrity bette I'd consider! About time we had an older cast imo

Hopefully she'll meet someone nice on BiP.  Maybe Apollo?  I could see that working and I'm sure he'd appreciate her... assets

Apollo and Cass would be a sweet, gorgeous couple.  Make it happen Channel Ten!

Also I'm kind of annoyed by the "hotness" sliders on the IGs. They'd never do that for the women on The Bachelor.

I like Adelaide too, @CatLover  I think Ali must have put in her order for a Vic boy and TPTB certainly delivered.

Agreed - very disrespectful IMO.  We haven't even seen their personalities yet so it's a straight up looks-based popularity contest.  

POOR FORM Channel 10.  

Out of interest though, how do we find out who's most popular?  For sleuthing purposes, of course.  

Ha ha, I'm in Adelaide as well, and perhaps thought maybe no SA boys because Ali's already been through all the elegibles here, so she needs some fresh meat?
