MasterChef Australia opens season with Robert Irwin guest spot

Robert Irwin in tomorrow night - they better be cooking snakes or roadkill or something. #MasterChefAU

I'm not saying he's not a really nice guy but if we're doing Aussie As week I again ask #MasterchefAU why have we not got a First Nation's Cook. Bring us Mark Olive, Norni Bero, bring back Mindy Woods, Jack Brown, for a start. In fact do a whole week with FN's chefs. #MasterchefAU

Dot CANNOT go when Luke should have left so many eliminations ago #MasterChefAU

I think add to the banned phrases list that "I'm not ready to go home". Like, has anyone in #MasterChefAU history ever said they were?

It’s so refreshing watching all the guys on #masterchefau having a man crush on Robert Irwin. Lol.

I miss the master classes. Who thought it would be a good idea to have NONE of that? #masterchefau

I feel so old seeing the contestants so excited to see Robert #MasterChefAU

No this is terrible. Luke’s crap against Dot???? Seriously??? #masterchefau

#masterchefau continuing the longstanding tradition of cooking with Australian native ingredients by bringing in ... a white guy

I think there are at least a few men in that room who have a crush on Robert Irwin #MasterchefAU

Hibachi! Prawns! Smoke! Lemon Myrtle! Drink Drink Drink Drink!!!! #MasterchefAU

The other 3 must feel disappointed, to cook so well, and not make it back #MasterChefAU Bella will go home again soon though I feel

Why are they sending Dot home? Her cooking is consistently better than Luke’s. #MasterChefAu

I am quite bored by all the (banal, obvious) contestant comments to camera. And seeing the judges joke around. How good would it be to have one of the judges cooking a dish at same time to show a technique, flavour / ingredient combos etc.... preferrably the michelin *** chef. #MasterchefAU

I wish native ingredients were a bit more easily accessible and a bit affordable. Would love to try some of these in my baking #masterchefau
