Betting were back on TAB on Thursday. But now only betting on Ryan is suspended. Very strange

Weird indeed.  I can only imagine that with TAB being in bed with Ten, TPTB asked them to do this to generate interest?

@Agent99 TAB have dropped Timm back in the rankings but we still have screen caps of him & Angie kissing in the water yet to come (maybe they're his HTD?) and he's been getting an F2 edit till now IMO (haven't seen ep 8 yet though).  

Quite possible IMO TPTB knew Timm would be a fan favourite so didn't want to take him to F2 and face the backlash.  If Ryan's F2 viewers will be more accepting of Angie's F1 choice IMO since many are expecting a re-do of Sophie & Stu.

@Bobette what kissing cap is that? I think to take Timm to f2, there will have to be a big turnaround because he is just not looking like it at the moment. But that will probably happen as I can't see the f2 as Carlin and Ryan.

The one they used as a thumbnail for the trailer - I assumed that was taken in Byron but maybe it's his HTD.  Will bring over...

Just sayin.  

@Bobette
Was that Ali and Todd? I haven’t watch her season... still resisting

Looks like Ali and Todd. Also similar to a shot of Georgia and Matty J kissing in a pool

Indeed it is.  

@Just Looking Yes it's classic F2 IMO - Abbie at her HTD would be another example.  If Timm is F2 the backlash will be real IMO.

I agree. So many people are commenting that Timm is friend zoned on social media. I could see Ryan being the F2 due to the physical aspect of the next date preview and how they nearly kissed before being interrupted by Timm . This would support why they cut her interaction with Carlin short because it looked like to me that they were going to go in for a kiss as well. So yeah, Ryan will look like the one she is more physically into but will pick Carlin. Or I could be wrong and Timm is still F2 but I think public perception sees Angie more into Ryan over Timm at this point. JMO.

If Ryan is F2 I will legit feel sorry for him.  It's obvious from the BTS videos that being on the show was painful for him IMO.  He looks like a distinguished gent in the middle of a bunch of frat boys and constantly bored/annoyed/exasperated.  

I have no doubt he was only there for Angie, and I think she would have known that too, so I doubt she would voluntarily drag him to F2.  I need to watch ep 8 to see how bad Timm's date really was.  Might grant myself an hour off work.

IMO, Ryan looks like he can’t wait to get out of there so I agree it would be cruel to take him to F2 but then again, I think it would also be hard on Timm.

Oh yes totally!  Timm is IMO the kind of guy who would be very easily swayed by a handler in his ear telling him he was her favourite (which past F2s have said they do) and post-show he resembles a wounded puppy IMO so I still do think he's F2.

The other thing against Ryan being F2 IMO is that he's not enough of a contrast to Carlin since they're both... quiet.  Timm is the perfect contrast IMO but considering he's seems to be a fan favourite IMO I forsee an outcry if/when he's dumped.

I think the only reason Ryan would be F2 is if TPTB wanted to make people think it was going to be another Sophie/Stu situation so they'll be happy when it's not. I just can't see Angie being willing to play along, since they were friends pre-show.
