Bachelor Australia - Matt Agnew - Season 7 - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Clipped from Betting thread:

Dirty Street Pie wrote:Black hair is the only constant at the moment, will be interesting to see how many have black hair when contestants are announced.

Bobette wrote: Clearly Sportsbet are no dummies.  Look at that MASSIVE max bet for blondes.  IMO they're confident the winner isn't blonde, and are banking on the fact that people will think she is.

All suggests to me that either F2 or an early favourite will be blonde and that F1 will definitely not be .

I really don’t know that we have any front runners named apart from Chelsie, as everyone that we’ve managed to get names for has been MOT based on their return to Instagram. Damn you TPTB for cracking down on social media this year!

I really want to find the samba dancer.

Of the other black haired girls we know of, Keely & Vakoo went out early, Sogand was active on SM mid-season and Cassandra was so blatant she may as well have printed 'I DO NOT WIN' on her t-shirt.

Then there's blue sequin.  I had her pegged as an MOT but they do have that brother-sister mirror image lookalike thing going on here IMO.  I wonder if she's from WA...  Dammit paps we nee more pictures!

Just had a light bulb moment:  I don't see blue sequin among the Somersby GD pics here.  Does anyone else?  

First date helicopter ride with Sogand was March 14 and Somersby March 27.  Wondering if blue sequin may have snagged a SD in the interim and hence wasn't on the GD?  

Or maybe she went out night 1 and I'm way off.    Bringing pics over for examination. There's a few others missing too so maybe they only took half the girls.

Also just noting what Matt was wearing in case it helps later on:

Was just pondering how much Laura looks like Matty J's Mum and wondering whether Matt's F1 will also resemble his Mum.  Note: she's not blonde.    







Sourced from his sister-in-law's public IG account here.  I've been keeping an eye on her account hoping she might slip up and follow F1 but no such luck.

It's so frustrating how they're so tight lipped about this season! I need more promos or at least give us some interviews with Matt about his type, or if he has found love.

Pretty much a nothing article but just noting this snippet:

Although filming for this season has only recently finished, Matthew has wasted no time in returning to everyday life, having just started as an analyst at Quantium this month. It is worth noting that according to LinkedIn, he is based at Quantium's Melbourne offices, but that the company has facilities in various parts of Australia, leaving it seemingly possible for him to move for love...

Definitely the kind of work that could be done remotely from any state IMO.

ETA: The Quantium info checks out but the rest of this article is a mess:

Matthew's social media presence is definitely a little more low-key. So much so, in fact, that he only created an Instagram account after having been cast on the show. Although it is no doubt guaranteed that his follower count will blow up once the show begins airing, at the time of writing (24th June), he had a humble 206 followers to his name.

1. He didn't "only create one after being cast"; he just deactivated his real one and set up a separate one for the show.

2. I don't know which Matt Agnew the journalist was looking at (maybe this one?) but she needs to check her facts...

My math's not great but pretty sure her supposed follower count is about 14,000 off.  

@Bobette thanks for setting it straight!

I didn't realise until now that Matt (or whoever runs his IG) deleted his first Clark Kent-ish photo and replaced it with his new madeover self.  I mean, he does look way hotter with a new hairdo and a hint of suntan?  Perhaps a few days after the FRC on a tropical island .  Or more likely, makeup.

Yeah I read something about that - people were saying he'd clearly had a nose job since the pics were so different?!  Uh, yeah, like he would have been able to fit that into the filming schedule.  

Just spotted this on the Twitter page.  Osher LOVES him!  Might just be because he was easy to work with but Osh is a good judge of character IMO.  I'm so pumped for this season - let's GOOOO!

Come behind the scenes and see our dashing new Bachelor Matt like you’ve never seen him before  #TheBachelorAU https://t.co/B07X20emsJ

Well spotted, @ThankMeLater!

GEMINI!!! Oh Abbey, honey are you going to regret that. Doesn't look like she stays long though so at least this will give her some airtime.

I didn't see any girls we don't already know about. One shoulder (Chelsea?) Red Ruffles and Feather Headdress all featured. NO Sogand. Taking screen caps now...

Here's one where those outside Australia can see the clip

YESSSS! Proper promo! Although sneaky TPTB still keeping most of the girls hidden, and only featuring curly haired Abbey, who probably doesn't last that long.
