Bachelor Australia - Season 9 - Jimmy Nicholson - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Yeah, she's getting the Bella treatment - date photos leaked early, DM article, foregrounded on SM and in promos/trailers, clips of the Lead appearing "enamoured" with her.  

Clearly F2 IMO and like Bella, I suspect she was guaranteed a place in the finale from the outset.  So boring seeing this obvious storyline played out again and again IMO.

As annoying/boring as that is, if there is real connection he develops with someone, I can overlook the producer manipulations.

LOL @ the comments.

Full cast photo released when I wonder - Tonight?  Tomorrow?

Oh I'm sure he had a real connection with F1, his post-show interviews are gushing and appear genuine IMO, but they won't show us that - they'll show us the IMO scripted/manipulated "connection" with F2.

Don't forget Jimmy's comment upthread - he only cared about ONE person.  Every other interaction will be fluffed and foregrounded to avoid "giving away" what I assume was a very obvious winner (IMO Jay).

AU F2s seem to fall into one of two categories; the invested/gullible type who believe the Lead is going to choose them and are devastated not to be The One (e.g. Elise IMO) and those prepared to play a role for the fame (e.g Bella IMO). Holly I would locate firmly in the second category.

It's no coincidence she comes from a marketing and acting background and she would have been fully aware of the storyline she needed to play out IMO. She would also have happily stepped into the F1 role if the preferred girl backed out (just like Carlin did when Ciarran did a runner, IMO).

SA girls

Alright I'm seeing a lot of matching names and IMO Sierah is a match for Sweppo, which means we got them all apart from Rebekah Hannah whom I have set a thread up for here (I'm thinking she's the ex-cult girl...?). Well done everyone for sleuthing practically the entire cast once again despite TPTB's best efforts to thwart our fun - especially @Dirty Street Pie with that long list of girls.

@Zaynab they'll be the NSW girls not SA.  I think there are only three from Adelaide.  Not surprising to have so many from Sydney considering COVID restrictions and if I'm right, even more convenient having the final 2 and their families local.  Stephanie might be top 4 too based on homestate and appearance in trailer, and I'm guessing Brooke will round out the finalists.

@Bobette we already had Rebekah, she’s Bek Modernal. I looked up cult awareness this morning, and she’s still on private, so maybe an intruder? Or a resource for the girls to be deprogrammed once they’re out?

Ah right - so she is!  So Hannah is the one we missed then yeah?  I count 23 girls and we had 23 threads but one was a double (still hoping that can be merged...)

No, we had Hannah as well, we just didn’t set up a thread for her

Hannah Norman, her name was on the original list, so cult awareness is still at large

Oh whoops sorry - you should have said something sooner! Can you post a link to her IG and I'll edit it in.

@Dirty Street Pie Thanks - done.

Some interesting placements here.  Female F1s aren't usually positioned too close to the Lead so Jay's front and centre spot seems suss.  

Stephanie's in the classic F1 spot but there's been barely any preshow media about her so unless TPTB are taking a new approach this year it seems unlikely.

Lily's also a great spot, plenty of pre-show media (and she looks like his mother ) but she seems to be caught up in the bitchy drama which isn't very F1ish.

Holly another more plausible F1 spot, but that dress?  YUCK!  [... though this is where someone will tell me they love it and I have no taste ]

Thoughts?
