I’m concerned that Mike Pyke might steal too many votes off of Teddy.
A quality outsider though, no question.

Violently.
Richards has moved in from $2001 to an even $2000.
Jump on and grab the scraps whilst you can, folks.

Campbell Brown’s passive aggressive microphone technique made that red carpet telecast bearable.
I’m glad he’s here.
Channel 7 montage is currently underway.
We’ll start the first few rounds by simply noting any key votes that are given out to the favorites.
Post round 5 we’ll ramp things up and have a running leaderboard.

Yep. She’s in attendance…

I’m with you Phelpsy.
Alex Davis (Pendlebury’s girl) and Tom Hawkins partner dressed conservative and had me wiping the brow.
You can’t beat class.

I’m not sure what’s more impressive. Dyson Heppell’s ability to dodge an interview question or his ability to dodge a contest.
Oh c’mon Essendon supporters, I’m allowed at least one cheap shot!

There’s a distinct lack of awkwardness with the absence of last years red carpet spinning wheel, thingy, thing.
I’m secretly gutted about it.

Good man! Happy to have you aboard the Kennedy train.
Expecting this one to go to the wire. Bring on the sweaty palms.

Plug away lads, the more the merrier.
I’m liking that there’s plenty of Josh Kennedy love being thrown around.
It’s raises my hopes just prior to the inevitable let down.

I hope you’re on the money Cam.
I’ve been on Kennedy since Round 2 at $51.
It’s safe to say this live blog could get a little scary and hard to decipher if he’s in the box seat for the latter rounds.

We’d be lost without Brynne’s valuable input.
