Furious The Block viewers have lashed out at the show for being ‘out of touch’ after Sunday night’s auction day grand finale saw only one of the five teams net a big win.

During the shock episode, a solid field of bidders – including series veteran Danny Wallis – turned out to the rural Victorian town of Daylesford, the site of the 2025 iteration of the Channel Nine series.

WA couple Britt and Taz took out the top sale of the day – offloading their stylish House 3 for an impressive $3.41 million, as the fan favourites walked away $420,000 richer – adding to that, a $100,000 bonus prize, netting them a total $520,000.

Although two other teams made a small profit, in an unexpected twist, two groups walked away empty-handed after their homes failed to attract any successful bids.

Stunned viewers took to social media to lash out at both the contestants for being ‘greedy’ and the series for placing unrealistic expectations on its participants.

‘Every year on The Block, the contestants seem to get a little greedier. It’s reached the point where a $100k profit is treated like a disappointment, when in reality, most people would be thrilled with that kind of money,’ one person sniped.

‘Approximately 25% of Australian employees earn over $106,700 per year. These greedy f***s just earned that in 10 weeks. Try telling your midwife who’s helping deliver your baby in 9 weeks how ripped off you are. I’m sure that will really fly. NOT,’ a second viewer complained.

‘The Block has gotten so unrealistic. We are in a housing crisis – build everyday homes for everyday people and stop with this overpriced crap,’ a third chipped in.

Others pointed out Robby and Mat’s disappointment over making just $109,999 profit.

‘Pathetic reaction from the boys [Robby and Mat],’ one person commented.

‘Seriously, there are people in Australia who don’t earn $55k a year and they’re angry at making that for 12 weeks work. Get over yourselves. This show is so out of touch,’ they added.

Meanwhile, others claimed this year’s series was doomed to fail due to its unrealistic selling expectations.

‘Screwing over contestants with high reserves. Absolutely heartbreaking for the boys,’ one person wrote.

‘Make this show with affordable houses! Expecting a millionaire will buy all the houses… instead they are getting people walking away crying,’ another vented.

Despite concerns that the Daylesford houses were priced way above the median for the area, the nerve-wracking auction day saw three of the five homes sell to successful bidders.

Serial Block bidder Adrian Portelli was absent from proceedings, with the winning bid coming from an anonymous phone bidder, after a battle with Melbourne rich lister and IT entrepreneur, Danny Wallis.

Fellow renovators Robby and Mat’s South Australian property fetched $3.099million, netting the best mates a meagre $109,999 profit.

The lads were bitterly disappointed with the winning amount, which they will have to split between them.

Meanwhile, Sonny and Alicia sold their home for $3.06 million – $120,000 above their $2.94 million reserve.

Despite the small yield, the couple were happy with the result.

But not everyone walked away with a sale, as both Emma and Ben, and Han and Can, failed to attract enough interest to get their properties over the line.

In heartbreaking scenes, Emma and Ben’s home was passed in after bidding stalled at their $2.99million reserve – and even a $3.10 million bid failed to help it generate interest.

There were fears of an auction disaster in the lead-up to the big day, with the eye-watering price guides on the Daylesford homes raising some eyebrows.

Earlier this year, it was revealed that the teams behind the five properties were hoping to fetch $3 million to $3.3 million for their creations.

However, the insanely high price guide did not match up with the median house prices in the Victorian town, where homes are four times cheaper.
