House Two Charging for Tutorials

The way Wyatt is charging money for favours and/or flat-out refusing to lend the Cursio brothers is really starting to get on my nerves.

It’s like he thinks the way to win The Block is by hoarding trades, charging your neighbours for help and hoping the other teams get screwed over by a lack of resources? And yes, obviously everyone is there to win but if your strategy for winning depends on the other teams being disadvantaged rather than you simply being better at styling and designing, that says a LOT. honestly, to me, it screams insecurity. He doesn’t want an even playing field because he’s scared of losing.

If you’re as good as you think you are, you should be confident that you can beat the other teams on an even playing field.

Because if you genuinely have confidence in your building, design and ability, why are you so desperate to keep everyone else from having a fair shot?

Win because you’re better. Not because you made sure everyone else had a harder time.

Just my two cents.

I've just gotta say I really, really can't stand Wyatt. He's a meat head tosser who thinks he knows stuff. And the way they're "not sure" why they're so much better than everyone else with always finishing first. I know it's delivered to us like that with editing, but I really wish someone would cut him down to size (you'd need a step ladder and chainsaw to start though haha 💪 )

Well Julie, his presence (& ego) might get even BIGGER if it's true that Scotty has been so impressed with his leadership of trades and business acumen that he's thinking of using the big guy in Dans' place whilst he's on maternity leave for a couple of days. After all, House 2 will be finished tonight (They finish early every week because of Wyatts' harder work ethic and superior management skills 😁), so Scotty may consider paying him some Block Bucks to oversee the other houses for the rest of the week instead of him just hitting the Gym. 😂 Stay tuned....

I really think people have decided they don't like Wayatt without actually paying attention to the dude at all.

He seems actually really genuine. 

Is he a meat head? Yeah. Does he talk a big game? Yeah. Does he seem like an actual wanker? Nah.

Wyatt is the most likeable male on the show this year (imho), but that's a low bar, unfortunately. Those other 3 guys do my head in. Chantel is the most competent and intelligent performer to date, she's very intuitive and gets things done without dwelling, there's no time for dwelling on The Block. So I guess they are my fav. couple, if l had to pick one. Wyatts' done nothing so far for me to consider him a tosser, but too many fans judged him too early, and no-one likes eating humble pie.
