I agree. Mentor roles only for ex contestants.

What's your guess DapperJong Hearing any names behind the scenes?

I disagree. I think the judges need to be someone highly respected with an authoritive type aura about them. "Guest appearances" from previous contestants works well though.

I say go with a combination of the following or perhaps even all on a rotating basis. Who says there has to be 3? Marco Pierre White Angela Hartnett Guy Grossi Alla Wolf-Tasker Shannon Bennett I fear the Channel 10 execs are dropping the ball on this one based on the names that are being...

Angela Hartnett (if you could get her) would be my pick of that bunch.

Why not these female chefs? Alla Wolf-Tasker (Lake House) Kylie Kwong Natasha Burnett Angela Hartnett - (British). Worked with Gordon Ramsey on Hell's Kitchen. Thought she was pretty good on the Great British Chefs show.

Yep. Totally biased scoring as always. One of the biggest things i won't miss from these judges. How the hell did Larissa's dessert get 10's with all the issues she had?

It was sourdough though so it would have been near on impossible to do themselves within the time limit. They should have just gone without it.

I'm with you on Adam Liaw

I give it 3 weeks for Verjuice to be a "Hero ingredient"

The Chutney "Pressure Test"!

Doesn't have the right cred for mine

Sorry, just don't see it working. Well, at least for me anyway

Well, keep doing a good job and make him a judge! Lol If the other names are true, i'm tipping it will be a complete fail!

That Beetroot entree was very ordinary. I'd expect something like that in the first week, not a final!

I don't think he's that bad. Everyone i've spoken to today agrees

Was it Tim that made the "Fine Dining" dish that included French Toast? :drunk:

Shannon as a judge would have been at the top of the list for me. DapperJong do you know why they wouldn't go with him? Does he not have the time to devote to the show?

Fair enough. I just don't think she fits the role of a judge on the show. Guest chef, sure! But when you look at her "pressure tests" like her picnic challenge this year, it's not at a Masterchef level.

Yeah that seems a strange decision to me too. These has to be quite a number of female Masterchefs out there that aren't tv personalities yet who could be perfect for the role. I don't necessarily think the judges need to have a tv reputation. Having a female judge with the right personality...

Fair call

New MasterChef judges revealed: Chefs Poh Ling Yeow, Maggie Beer and Curtis Stone will take over after George Calombaris, Matt Preston and Gary Mehigan quit

With these 3 judges i'm guessing the pressure tests will be replaced by a picnic spread!

3 new judges announced Curtis Stone Poh Maggie Beer Curtis - Ok... i can accept that Poh - Not enough cred yet for mine Maggie - No! Just no! She is a very good home cook, not a masterchef!

I think we are more than likely to see another Ice-cream or Panna cotta from Larissa rather than something new and creative. She is a massive one trick pony who just happens to be up against a bunch of very ordinary competitors.

This season of Masterchef has been a real let down for me. I remember watching the first week thinking that the standard had been raised from previous seasons and looking forward to seeing what the contestants could become. I'm now watching it thinking that the standard from who we have left...

Sooo who won?

How did the voting go?

Meat and 2 veg vs Meatloaf and Slop. Hardly inspiring
