So I must meet to meet me at Bassam Dean oval which is my AFL home ground
IFO is definitely a big part of my life and something that you know I'd really
like my my partner to enjoy too so basically I'm just gonna teach him some
pretty stuff I'm just really hoping to kind of show him what I'm about and see
if he can enjoy that part of my life too so couple of Springs Brooke I've been
trying to put my finger on what the feeling is you know when I'm around her
what I experienced you know presence I don't know I'm
trying to work it here what I do know is there is no barrier between us at all
whether it's physical or emotional whatever
it's totally okay maybe you tackle me Prada and the feeling of that connection
I've been waiting for for a long time I
really like me and I've never really felt like this towards someone in such a
short time I feel safe to be myself I feel comfortable I feel a lot of things
for Nick that I've never really felt with any of my past relationships so
it's a big surprise for me it's definitely an unusual feeling let's go
get some oranges yeah are you reckon but it's a good feeling
thank you for coming to my home ground I haven't really had anyone to come watch
me play other than my family which no you get to me tonight yes on that note
everyone meeting you know I've been pretty honest and open to Nick about you
know my life my childhood my experience my mum passed away when I was 11 and I
was pretty much in and out of foster homes so I don't have the normal mum dad
brother sister family so you're meeting my best friend Tess she just knows me
better than what I know myself sometimes then I also have my brother Troy I was
kind of like his sort of mother figure growing up and then I've got Peter he's
kind of like a father figure and he's really important
growing up I didn't really have a lot of stability and now I have that impose
test Peter and Troy provide that stability that I need you got a few
sharpshooters in their office ago tester probably the one that asks the questions
because she knows and seen my past relationships and she knows what I'm
looking for and she knows what I need Tess has definitely not been a fan of
who I've previously dated she is protective so she's probably the one
that will tell me as I know even though she's shy she's definitely
quite hard because the difficult life Brooks lived I have no doubt that her
loved ones will be extra protective and fair enough to that just loads even more
pressure on tonight I reckon they're gonna come here all guns blazing yeah
yeah look good as I'll be it's really important that my family do like Nick
I've never brought a boyfriend back to have family dinner so yeah hope he
handles it well bit cooler
it's been a while since I've seen my family I've missed them so much and it's
really hard you know trying not to get so emotional about seeing them but it
also makes me so happy as well standing there in the land room I've done all the
meetings marullo kept okay and then they're all looking at via justice a
Samia of course there's going to be certain tension in the room I'm a guest
in their house and I'm dating one of the girls in their life that they love the
most so the first time I met Brooke it was on
the red carpet there's a bit of a bit of something but a connection there I've
been talking to her that she shows you know maturity beyond the years and just
very beautiful beautiful being funny about the situation and the Brookes in
it's not normal there's no normal way to go and find
love it's on a TV show mr. Fang we did experience yeah oh my what a strange
setup nothing about it is natural so not the way you meet not the way you go
on dates it's spontaneous and likes you don't know what's gonna happen but yeah
is it real I don't know dinner table somebody is just about to jam me fork in
the Tucker and then paying the questions start boosts so on what what made you go
on the show mate I suppose all of us here we you'll want to find a special
someone and definitely ready to settle down now no more partying out with the
boys but definitely the balance is kV yeah you say you don't play around me
anymore oh you doing I'm taking a year off
mm-hmm so do you travel a lot then when you're playing like how are you gonna
maintain a relationship do you know what I mean these questions are coming in
thick and fast and they're not holding back
it's a weird for you to have a connection with four different girls at
the same time like is this real or is it not
can't even get a faded and stared at me bolognaise I don't thinking no chance of
getting that and me going obviously broke leaves here and where do you live
to suit me yeah like if she moved there and you're never gonna be there broke
means like stability like and like if you're always on the run yeah yeah well
so when I was playing it was it was very difficult
mm-hmm and it's definitely trying I feel like he thinks prepared for all the
questions he's obviously got it in his head what he wants to say and what we
want to hear you know what maybe we should talk about this one-on-one thing
oh my god Chuck yeah this is concerning
if I'm getting these questions I at the dinner table what's gonna happen now and
I'm thinking does sharing together okay so like what I like her chances of
being with you and ending up with you and having a life with you
I don't know Nick very well I just met him but if he ends up with Brooke I need
to know that he's gonna be there for her and what about like your connection with
her you know like how strong really is it Tess is coming in hot
there's three other girls and I'm sure you have your thing with them as well I
mean you've got to expect a couple of currently questions in this situation
but she's throwing the kitchen sink at me have you like picture the life of her
well I've envisioned the how it would be with you know with Perth and Sydney and
mm-hmm I've actually envisioned her coming over
because my concern is with Brooke like she's a girl that really needs stability
it's something she hasn't had and has been very up and down in her life like
you need to be that rock for her emotionally so you like ready to beat
that for her if I can't offer that I won't yeah
choose I won't do this I'll only be doing her and myself a disservice yeah
and wasting both of our time yeah well that's a good answer I just got to be
confident in the connection I have with Brooke yeah and Brooke hairs with me and
you think it's that strong it's it strong yeah otherwise we wouldn't be you
know in this position right now I would not be sitting next to you yeah getting
drilled I understand why stability is so important to Brooke I get it maybe you
might like it you really see how strong the connection
is broke to her life here in firth and her loved one so it would be really
tough to break that up but right now what's important is how I
feel about broken oh well there you go and what we have
together is something special today's being such an amazing day it's
been good yeah beautiful bunch of people in there and I love you very much and
I'm so glad that you got the chance to be a part of my world and who I am and
the people that I have in my life I can't fold them and I can't fault you
you're pretty special to me and I definitely really care a lot about you
like yeah I really really like you and I really see myself fully and loved it
here and I am fully massively and to say with
my family it just gives that clarity of how special you are to me
hearing those words and Brooke it's one of the most beautiful things it's also
means is a potential for breaking hearts and last thing I want to do is is break
a heart like that all right
I'll see you hopefully soon find it Barbara
it is pretty scary to think that you know the rose ceremony
it could be over I've had a lot of fun with him I've had a lot of fun with a
lot of people
okay
I really have loved like every single time that I've actually spent with him
and I'm kind of scared of the thought that like I wouldn't ever get that with
someone again but you do have to think about it and he's gonna be doing that
with three other girls we probably feel the exact same
you
