The premiere of The Bachelor 2018 was everything we had hoped for and more: there were laughs (far more this season than last, sorry Matty J), a few crazy moments (Cass, we all know you don’t share whose name you wrote in your diary) and some definite chemistry (Brooke Badger, anyone?)
While I was minding my own business watching the show (AKA telling my boyfriend to shut up and sit down or get out of the room), I noticed my usually completely disinterested partner start to pipe up with more commentary than Osher Gunsberg.
Here, 16 things he said while watching episode one of The Bachelor Australia.

When Dasha started doing sit-ups with her legs around Nick’s head:
“Impressive, but I’d run, mate”

Not sure who he was talking about:
“What’s wrong with that girl?”
After Cass gets a rose:
“I think he chose her because he was scared”
