Odds-on-winning:
According to the bookies, this boy has got what it takes: syndicate voting or not.

From zero to hero:
Can anyone actually remember Heinz from his preliminary round audition? He sang the Monkees/ Smashmouth's I'm a Believer. But that was before "hunky" and Heinz became an alliterative anomaly.

Controversy calls: Heinz surprised everyone by beating out fellow hot boy pop contenders: Rian (great voice, shame about the face); David (nice face, shame about the voice) and Ezra (nice voice and face, lucky one Heinz). His detractors say he's on too much of a rock tip - is SA ready for a bona fide rock Idol? As Candy said "does it matter if he can sing with these looks?"

Judgement:
"Your looks and voice are only part of it, you're missing that third element. So work on it." (Judge Dave)

Idol speak:
"For me, as a guy, the attention from girls is hard not to notice."

What if he wins?
He's a singer songwriter. Forget the one hit wonder - this guy will release his own self-penned selections of sensitive lyrical liedjies for many a year to come. Most likely to release a Hootie and the Blowfish tribute album before he's 30.

What if he loses?
If Art isn't up to scratch when Just Jinger need a vocalist, then they know who to call.

Best Idols moment:
His uncanny ability to make every song he sings a slow and sexy power rock ballad.

Worst Idols moment:
He may be hunky, but that's no excuse to forget his words onstage.

Musical niche:
Surprise, surprise! He may have blown the Police ballad Every Breath, but on Westlife's Soledad, he proved what most people - including the judges - always thought: he's a boy popster at heart.

Staying power:
At 24, he's probably just about pushing the Pop Idols sell-by-date envelope.
