Is that from the Australian Idol Website??

If you go by those figures they're all still pretty close really.

SS... you are obviously an AI watcher.

Who did you like the best in the past years ??

I watch it coz the missus does :oops:

Favourite over the years? Hmm ... I was really happy Damien Leith won.

He was something different, unique and I like his stuff.

Reminds me of an Irish Alex Lloyd a bit.

Don't rate Sebastian, respect but don't like Noll's stuff, Anthony Callea probably did the best performance by any contestant of all time with the prayer, but don't rate his stuff either.

Casey Donovan [-X biggest mistake ever

Last year's winner, I can't even remember.

She'll fall by the wayside.

Jessica Mauboy is looking smoking hot and should be a success but I don't like her stuff either.

I don't think Iv'e ever bought any Idol material, unless maybe Wes delivers some quality.

:lol: :lol:

I'm sure that's what my husband tells everyone too !!!!

I don't think any of last years idols have done anything... have they??

And yes, Jessica has slimmed out and grown up into a very pretty young lady.

I have to say that I really love Shannon Noll... he has been my favourite of all time !! :D
Followed in close second by Anthony Callea.

I loved Chris Murphy too.

I never rated Guy.... all the way through... not until he started putting albums out.... and then I liked him :D

Well SS we differ on a lot re idol...
I'm backing Chrislyn all the way... and it looks like you're a Wes fan :D

We'll just have to wait and see what will happen.

Has anyone actually 'backed' anyone ??
Dutchy are you on Chrislyn??

If you haven't got the punting terminology, i don't think that post would make much sense Dutchy. BTW, how much is 2.5 units? $25, $250?

Dont forget another larger dud that won it, Kate DeRouge!!!!! The voting public have gotten it wrong more often than not.....

I love music and think that Wes is by far the strongest performer, but will the 15 year old nuffy's be voting for him in the last week against a younger Chrislyn, I think no.

I think she gets the sympathy vote. She won't sell albums but will probably win.

My perception on tonights performances....

As much as I hate to say it... Chrislyn was really bad tonight :(
Hope she manages to hold on and stay in on her past performances and not tonights for you Dutchy.

And as much as I hate to say it :lol:.... Wes by far the best performance of the night.

Luke good, Teale good.

Mark okay.

O:)

SS.... what did you think?? :D
When you had to sit through it while the 'misus' was watching :wink:

Even though I haven't liked Wes that much... his performance tonight came close to the best this season thus far.

What are the updated odds on these guys Dutchy??

Chrislyn Hamilton 2.60
Mark Spano 2.75
Teale Jakubenko 4.00
Luke Dickens 5.00
Wes Carr 31.00

Above market is to be eliminated tonight, reckon Teale is value at $4.00

Teale Jakubenko to be eliminated
0.5 Unit @ $4.00


Mark is nearly favourite to go tonight but still 2nd fav for the series, if he goes tonight the winners market will be interesting tomorrow
