Team Rita โ€“ Lachie Gill

Melbourne P.E. teacher Lachie was bound for the AFL field before his passion for music usurped his career plans.

โ€œAs soon as I could walk I had a footy in my hand. I was one step away from my dream of playing footy at the highest level, but music started to take over,โ€ he revealed in his Blind Audition.

โ€œUltimately I had to choose. I love footy, but I love music even more.โ€

The Battle Rounds saw Lachie and Robbie Dolan singing for their life. In a close contest, Lachieโ€™s raw and vulnerable performance of I Guess Iโ€™m In Love by Clinton Kane saw him victorious, as Rita admitted: โ€œYou were both spectacular up there, you both deserve to be on that stage.โ€

Lachie locked in his Grand Finale spot with a captivating rendition of Dรฉjร  Vu by Olivia Rodrigo over Xanthe Campbellโ€™s abcdefu by Gayle.

โ€œHeโ€™s worked so hard. He steps it up a notch every single time. Youโ€™re everything one can look for in creating a superstar,โ€ coach Rita said.

A visibly shocked Lachie said: โ€œEvery week a fire is burning. I just want to keep going and keep going. I have learnt so much but I am just having so much fun. I donโ€™t want this to stop.โ€

Team Jess โ€“ Faith Sosene

After an emotional performance of Because You Loved Me by Celine Dion, dedicated to her mum who she takes care of every day, 24-year-old Faith moved all four judges.

Jess, in particular, was touched by the audition and gave the winning pitch to the singer, surprising Faith with the seasonโ€™s first battle pass.

โ€œIโ€™m really happy I can give back (to my mum) by showing her the compassion that she showed to me growing up,โ€ Faith said.

In the Battle Rounds, Faithโ€™s show-stopping performance of Aretha Franklinโ€™s Ainโ€™t No Way cemented her Semi-Final spot. Jess acknowledged: โ€œIt comes down to who I think fought harder just now, because that fight is what you need to win.โ€

Faith proved she deserved her Grand Finale place after Jess set the challenge to โ€œgive yourself permission now to believe in yourselfโ€.

Faithโ€™s powerful delivery of Beyoncรฉโ€™s Listen moved her superstar coach to tears as she took Faith to the Grand Finale over Jael Wena, who performed Dua Lipaโ€™s Donโ€™t Start Now.

โ€œWow, it feels like a dream,โ€ Faith said.

Jordan cemented his Grand Finale spot over Cassidy Mackie with an emotional performance of Foreignerโ€™s I Want To Know What Love Is, dedicated to his Nanna.

โ€œI think that whatever you do and wherever you go, itโ€™s going to be spectacular,โ€ Rita said her after the audition.

In the Semi-Finals, Thando secured her Grand Finale berth with a spinetingling interpretation of Ariana Grandeโ€™s POV against Laneโ€™s Father And Son by Cat Stevens.
