Here are a few comments from the AI Yahoo Group

Cosima:
In my opinion, Cosima isnt particularly attractive, and probably does
need to pluck those eyebrows.. BUT that doesn't matter because she
(along with Paulini) are strongest female vocalists in the
competition. Her vocal power is impressive.. and marcia is quite
right when she says that Cosima lights up the room with her smile.
Her performance on the semi-final show is nothing short of the
expected as she sang just as beautifully as she has throughout the
competition.
Marc:
This guy has not had much airtime on the show, and I didn't know much
about him, but he impressed me tonight. His rendition of "Let It Be"
was great, and really was a great interpretation which showcased his
vocal talents. He proved that he has an impressive vocal range, and
has a good falsetta voice. On another note, his image is a good one
for television because he is quite a built man with a good sense of
style.
Hailey:
Well I was dissapointed with this girl on tonight's show. THroughout
the competition she has been awesome. She's showcased her exceptional
voice and proved that she is one of the best performers in the
competition. throughout the comp she's looked very comfortable on
stage. HOWEVER, her semi-final performance landed abit short and as
the judges said, she was not confident in the notes that she reached.
I personally think she deserves to go through because she can do a
great job in the later rounds, but i don't think its gonna happen.
Sowwy Hailey.
Sidney:
This Big boy Has proved a woping vocal range to us all. Included in
that range, he is able to control his voice verry well, and is much
like the male version of Uretha Franklin. He is also a great
performer on stage, and I am appaulled that Dicko reckons the
cornrows make him look like Shrek. I think the cornrow look is mad.
Good luck to Sidney.
Rebecca:
I have three words to describe this girls. HOT, HOT and HOT ! ! !
This girl is absolutely gorgeous and ranks up there in looks value
with Veronica (the filo chick) and Alex (the blond gurl with the big,
um. u noe). But not only is this girl a looker, She has a great
voice, and the so-called "uba note" as popularized by Mariah, is a
great asset to this girl. Last week Chelsea didn't quite pull it off,
but Becky did it perfectly. Conratz to her. She an absolute Diva.
Axle:
The man from the "School of Cool". Hehe, this guy is a popular guy. I
personally don't like the way he sings, and infact, he puts me 2
sleep coz i reckon he's boring. But I can see this guy making it
through. Australia seem to love this guy (i have no idea why), and he
adds a different spice to the Australian Idol soup. I don't wanna see
this guy win, but i think that there are alot a aussies (namely the
ladies) that want to see him through. And respects for that.
Kelly:
ah, the rock chick. I like this girl, she has the coolest attitude on
stage. And she lets it out. The song choice was a great choice for
her, and a song which is very popular at the moment. She has a great
spirit about her when she performs, and she can bring an audience to
life with her performances. Avril, move over, theres a new rock chick
taking over.
Matt:
At first glance at this competition. I hated Matt. He looked like a
little insecure puppy that did't know what to do. And he performs
with his eyes close THE WHOLE ENTIRE TIME!! So you might think I
didnt like his performance.. WRONG!! I loved it. This semi-final
program really made me change my mind about this guy. His performance
technique may need to be polished a little, but this guy really sings
from his heart, in other words, he sings very sincerely. Dicko made
the comment about Matt being the Daniel Wakefield of this group. I
beg to differ as Matt has much more substance. On another note, his
image is the perfect pop image.
In conclusion, this show was a very hard one to vote from. In my
opinion, every single competitor performed well, but maybe, just
maybe I'd give it to Matt. But group2 was unbelievably close unlike
last week, where there were shear standouts (Shannon and Lorena). But
it doesn't matter what i think coz its upto Australia now!!!
