Bachelorette Australia - Season 4 - Ali Oetjen - Screencaps - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Yes I agree the blindside could still be Taite. Someone noted his mother was liking negative comments about Ali on SM so maybe she didn't want anything to do with the show.

Then again there have been other contestants who don't have close family but instead they get friends or cousins etc - so would be odd if none of Taite's rellies show up.

Unless the no-show involves illness or unforseen emergency, not bringing any family seems like an "up yours" to TPTB and I can only think of one person who would do that - Charlie.

Hair looks the same. Only the 5oclock beard look shorther but could be an optical illusion?

I think it makes no sense Ali would pass a 2nd date with taite. She needed reinsurance. Especially when she was upset about taite answer: I wanted him to tell me he would fight for me

Is it related with his family who did not want to see her at HTD?

I cannot find the image of Ali and Charlie paddle boarding, I want to see her hair. Could someone please post it here and the surroundings for me to see? Thank you

Were Charlie and Ali paddle-boarding or kayaking?

In the red coat photo it looks cold and windy, imo, paddle-boarding and wind don't go well...so I am still inclined to believe the red coat date is Taite's htd. Where in Victoria could Taite's date be? I read he is originally from Ballarat, but it doesn't mean that their hometown date takes place there. If the red coat date is Charlie's then why didn't we have any preview of Taite's date?

If it's Tait with no family showing up at HTD then goooooood luck Ali   

I have relatives in Ballarat - when I visit I make sure I bring extra coats as I can’t stand how cold it gets there! I think Ali in red is possibly Ballarat or Melbourne, so Taite’s home date. JMO.

What if ...

Charlie is doing an F4 exit a la Courtney Georgia But Ali ALSO eliminates Bill at F3?

I think the red coat and Ali's red nose is either Melbourne or Ballarat.  More likely Ballarat, which is bitterly cold in August.  IMO I don't think Bill's HTD will go badly - even with the ex-gf, they are still smiling and I think it will be awkward for a minute and then all good.  I think the 2 dates that don't go to plan will be Charlie's and Taite's. Charlie's because he is on the way out, and Taite's because he is the F1 and that is what they do

IMO it's Coogee since that's where he lives.  Makes no sense to travel 45 mins to another beach when he has this on his doorstep.

Yes, that is what I thought too Sprout becasue we go to Melbourne all the time and also go to Sydney easily once/twice  a year. Also, The Bachelorette was filmed mostly in Sydney this year and thus far no one has been wearing big coats during the day in any episode, or perhaps I missed something? Before I moved to my city many many years ago,  used to live in Sydney, in the Eastern Suburbs, close to the beach and although it could get very  cold  the weather was stable; Sydney's weather doesn't change as abruptly as Melbourne's weather does. I went to see the video of Ali and Charlie paddle-boarding and on the background there are people wearing shorts, the water is sort of blue and there doesn't seem to be much wind. Obviously, the weather could have changed and the weather could have gone from cold windy -to warm, but that is not usual in Sydney imo
