Hes the most creative though, he reminds me of Will Young, not the best voice, but the most talented

Austin is nothing compared to the girls, he will get far, the teenage girls will see to that, but the girls are so much better. Alex, Rachel, laura, Diana all wrip the floor with him.

How can you say he's nothing?
You can't even compare males to females because their voices are so different.
However, Austin's voice is unique, and he's got a defined style unlike most contestants.
As bbE said, he's creative and really works with the songs he's given [his arrangements of End Of The Road &Valerie sounded great].

The only female contestant that you've named who does the same is Diana [not being biased].

Im really hoping Diana gets far!!

That's just my opinion, he is nothing specail, he does nothing for me. There are far better singers there then him, but like I said, that's my opinon.

Alexandra Burke 3/1
Laura White 3/1
Austin Drage 4/1
Rachel Hylton 13/2
Diana Vickers 9/1
Eoghan Quigg 10/1
JLS 12/1
Ruth Lorenzo 14/1
Bad Lashes 16/1
Danny Evans 16/1
Scott Bruton 25/1
Girl Band 25/1

Im really hoping Diana shoots up.

Rachel should be there with Lauara and Alex. Austin is rubbish compared to her. But I suppose he will be getting the teeange girls votes, and gay votes because he is gay (it's obvs lol, not that it matters)

I don't think the odds mean much now, to be honest...last year, Rhydian, Same Difference & Niki were the bottom three in the odds...

Odds don't mean anything at this stage
They will only mean something in about 3 weeks time

:shocked:

Bad Lashes are being way underestimated.

I agree, I can see them making it furthest out of the groups.

They have the potential to be one of the best groups ever.
Also think Alex is being overestimated, I don't think she'll be at the final 6.

Dont you guys think JLS is underetimated as well? I think they have the better chancce of winning among the groups! anyone agrees?

There my favourite group but these type of bands never do well, looks at 4Sure from last year (could have been the year before), they were very similar and were eliminated really early.

JLS are great vocally, and theyd do well in America but on XF these type of bands never do well. Unfortunately, I'd give them till week 3 at the most.

Yep History says youre right! But I am rooting for the groups this year, if not JLS, the other 2:blush2:

They're absolutley fantastic, my favourites but groups don't win mainly due to lack of focus on one person or a sob story IMO.

Come on Diana!!

I dont want Scott to go first :(

$sure were good, it was 2 seasons ago, but the week they got eliminated, they stunk! They went home deservedly! I was more upset last year, I dont remember their name, but there was a group with twins, adn their best friend. That was my favorite act, but they didnt make it to the live show because the judges had to put Hope and Futureroof through (their makeshift losers bands).

I think Rachel or Girlband will go first! Lets see if I am right. And before ay performance, I predict, that will be the bottom 2!:shrug::shrug:

I think the bottom 2 will be Girlband and Ruth

I think Girlband and either Ruth or Danny (:sad:) will be bottom 2, with Girlband being sent home.

I think it'll be Girlband and Danny.
