I stopped watching MC Australia - since the judges were very biased, however started following S10, since it showed promises with Judges of likes Gordon Ramsay.
I believe the top 10 contestants were rigged ….
believe Hoda, Jenny, Lisa and Sarah have more potential than the contestants:
Kristen (who has nothing to offer... exception some desserts, she has been low balling/hiding below the station - without any risk taking or challenging herself)
Chole another example of biased judging, she seem be favored by judges for no good reason. never showed up with any extemporary cooking or style... definitely not a top 10 material... I truly believed in the cook off btw Shashi, Chole and Sameera for super powers weekend... Sameera & Shashi should have cooked off... Chole should have been eliminated...
Jess - already too much for 19 yr old, being 10 ten & 10K was enough for her. she too fails with risk appetite, play safe.
well most what I see of MC session - Judges don't seem to like or understand Asian dishes. (unlike MC America) … always a Simple Pastry chef wins against a complex Asian/continental dish.
further update:
As I keep watching the episodes (as an economist), I decode the judges more & more... its easy for me.
in the episode : where the contestants had to cook for Shannon's restaurants menu - its was very easy...
First Reece shouldn't have been shortlisted (was a very simple dish - not worthy of entering the menu list)
Judges prompting Cloe to use super power - else she would have directly gone to elimination.
Strategically Judges put Sameera, Jess & Ben into eliminations (though Sameera doesn't deserve to be in elimination) She put in lot of work and technic (risk as well). but again an idiot with a sweet dish wins.
I can predict the elimination - Sameera will be eliminated in the pressure test. she has been targeted from TOP 10 (SAD SAD), the contestants Jess, Ben & Cloe has been protected.. though they have nothing more to contribute.
