Simply put, Georgia Love chose Lee Elliott over Matty Johnson, despite Channel 10’s best efforts to expend our emotional energy on the idea of a blissful GeorMatt LovSon union.

By contrast, the third group is curiously optimistic about the whole thing. After all, until we find out otherwise, Matty J and that enviable swoop of beaut brown hair is on the market:

We eagerly await Guy Sebastian’s take on this ordeal. Seriously, guide us, Guy – we don’t know what to feel. We don’t know if we can feel.
