Tayah >> Alice IMO

[PDC]

You know nothing, Sasquatch

[Snakewing2000]

Agree with Sasquatch. Tayah definitely underrated.

Oh, what could have been with this match-up.

So, I did lightly toy with the idea of cutting Alice here, for the lols, to see how PDC would react when faced with her first real "OMG, RANKDOWN DRAAAMAZ" experience and to try to force her into using her "Sarah Murdoch Save" at the end of the first cycle, which would see me quite quickly ascend to the position of MOST POWERFUL RANKER MWUHAHAH but then I was like "wait.. WHO IS THIS TAYAH BITCH AGAIN? Like, she was on Cycle 7 right? Like, the second to last one? Oh shit, she was too! What'd she do again? Oh yeah, that's right, nothing." So I realised, to my resignation, that cutting Alice first and keeping some bitch from one of the newer cycles who did not have a single model "moment" to fall back on was just unjustifiable so, here we are.

In dead-last place we have the girl with the awkward double-barrel surname who couldn't bring it in the Lady Gaga inspired coffin photoshoot. Yes. I said "Lady Gaga inspired coffin photoshoot". Cycle 7 had some cray cray photoshoots which I'm sure we'll be getting around to rather quickly as I don't see many in this cast lasting deep into the competition save for some unexpected PDC-related shenanigans. So, what was it about Tayah that saw her early exit from Cycle 7, you ask? Well, for starters, the one thing that I remember most about Tayah that makes her bloodly impossible to keep over Alice B, even in an obviously trolly fashion, is how much of a goddamn Debbie Downer this girl was during the meagre 4 episodes in which she appeared. Honestly, the girl looked like she was being forced to compete under threat of her dog being killed or her family taken hostage or something..

I mean, here she is feeling beautiful in an Alex Perry gown



Here she is being told she's going through to the next round, congratulations! You must be thrilled!



Here is being told her grandfather passed away while she was in Paris having her photo taken:



Kidding, that last one is just her reaction to some rando judge's comment, not even particularly critical and yet, she looks like she's having her heart-broken by the first guy she ever loved. Surely you can see what I mean though, right? She is SUCH a Debbie Downer I cannot remember a single confessional she gives in the premiere episode, she is completely swallowed up in a Cycle that contains personalities such as Izzy, Montana and the Proto-Ducky, Neo. The fact she even made it episode 4 can be attributed to a) episodes 1 & 2 being, essentially, just bloated, drawn-out auditions episodes (the top 16 doesn't start until episode 3) and b) the disastrous casting decision that was "blue-skin" Cassy Phillips-Sainsbury (I'll explain that if I'm lucky enough to get to do her write-up). Essentially, Tayah failed at the first real opportunity Tayah had to fail without there being some sort of safety net and, in doing so, actually managed to dodge the massive bullet that was the rest of Cycle 7. So, she may lose out here, but, ultimately, she was the winner at the end of the day in that whole scenario.

So, Alice is saved by a combination of shitty production decisions and this girl's complete inability to do anything memorable within 4 episodes of the most horribly bland, one-sided Cycle in AusNTM history.

Thus begins my #getcycle7out campaign (there's only one other Cycle I hate on equal par and I hope to be telling you all about that via mass-cull soon as well). Fair warning to my friend and fellow ranker PDC - this isn't RGF's Next Top Best-Friends Rankdown!



Consider this a warning shot because you got touched by an angel girl.


That means ALICE BERDEU, you will move on to Cycle 2 and continue on in the hopes of becoming RFG's AusNTM Rankdown winner!

lol @ that match-up.. talk about a rock and a hard place!

Good luck with your first cut PDC! They often say it is the deepest, but I think you'll have much deeper, lol.

[PDC]

I feel like I signed up for a fun and friendly rankdown, and Trojan is ready to rip my heart to shreds. Write-up to be posted in a few hours =]

You're going down. #Trojanssavegonefirst

[PDC]

I know Trojan has issues with Jess-Goddess who looks like French pop sensation Yelle, and as much as I'm sure she'd love to see her cut down so early, IT AIN'T HAPPENING BOO. This was the easiest first cut for me to make, since I was fortunate enough to get the episode 1 quitter. I have a weirdly good memory for AusNTM (how dare you accuse me of recency bias you dumb whore!) and this girl only rings a bell as what Cassi VDD would've been like if she quit ep.1 and not had a post-show bogan-splosion.

There are so many things wrong with this girl who didn't even make it to the end of episode 1 of cycle 3 - firstly, wtf is with the alternate spelling name? Please go and slap your parents for that one, what a mess. "Jaimi" is worse than Jaime, it's even worse than Ja'mie!




Secondly, she seriously quit because she missed her boyfriend. Bitch are you serious? This 18 year old gave up her chance in this competition (she was never going to do well, let's be real here. Queen Alice won this season ) for a guy, who she probably isn't even dating anymore. Smart move, Jaimi <3 Really living up to your name there! I hope South Australia is treating you well!






That model potential!

Probably the only redeeming things about this girl are that 1) she quit before she inevitably got wiped the floor with by Queen Alice and ~others whose names are suppressed to protect from the Trogronk~, and 2) they changed the season intro and cut her out so that she was no longer even considered one of the audition "Finalists" on the show. Too bad they didn't edit the Season Promo...




That means JESSICA FRENCH, you will move on to Cycle 2 and continue on in the hopes of becoming RFG's AusNTM Rankdown winner!
