As the 2021 season of Married At First Sight reaches it’s finals fever pitch, thousands of blokey blokes around Australia are trying their very best to pretend they haven’t been watching it religiously at home – every night.
Today, on a chilly stretch of the Birdsville Development Road, a group of eight Betoota Council workers are keeping their lips sealed.
Some have been watching it with the misso, some of them will claim they’ve ‘been kinda following it’ because they have daughters.
But at least four of these blokes are single with no kids, and they are just as invested as most of the nation is in the downfall of that chauvinistic pig Bryce.
While filling in a pothole on the city’s outskirts today, Brenton (55) did his very best to keep talking about the lacklustre performance of The Brisbane Broncos for as long as possible.
“Yeah. And they’ve just put Milford down in juniors aye?” says Kenno (42), a bloke who has also not missed one episode.
“Yeah” says Brenton.
“Not a good year for Broncos fans haha”
Mario (50) and Clyde (39) agree.
“Yeah definitely” says Mario
“There’s nothing to watch on TV”
Damo (35), sighs, wishing he could talk about some of the bombshells from last night’s episode of delicious reality TV, where every bloke standing around this pothole watches as well”
“Absolutely” says Damo.
“When the Brisbane Broncos aren’t playing very good football… There is nothing to watch”
