Blockheads are leaving no stone unturned as they watch the latest season of the renovation show, observing closely as a brand new batch of contestants build a 500-square metre house, each to varying levels of success.

The 18th season – dubbed The Block: Tree Change – has already seen one couple pack their bags and leave the competition just days in, forcing Nine to replace the influencers with two new budding builders.
So, out of the remaining contestants, who is poised to win the season?
Well, while we haven’t reached auction day just yet, fans are already convinced they know who will build the most desirable house for 2022.
Flocking to the betting sites Sportsbet and TAB, which have been predicting the winners of reality shows for years, Blockheads have placed winning odds on one couple in particular.
Both sites list Tom and Sarah-Jane as the predicted winners, with odds of $2.62 on Sportsbet and $2.25 on TAB.
While Sportsbet lists Dylan and Jenny second with odds at $3.75 and Omar and Osman coming close behind them with odds sitting at $4.50. Meanwhile TAB predicts Rachel and Ryan will come runner up, but Omar and Osman remain in third.
When the show was first released, fans believed Dylan and Jenny were going to be the ones to beat with their building experience. However, they have been placed fourth on TAB.
“My dad is a builder and I have grown up watching him,” Dylan told Nine. “Now that I’m a builder it felt natural to apply for The Block as it’s something I have always wanted to challenge myself with.”
Jenny is also a tradie who wants to show young girls that the building industry isn’t just for men.
“When I tell people I am doing my apprenticeship they always say you don’t build, you don’t do anything. But I do – I do everything,” she said.
The stars are also engaged and hoping to wed in March next year, while also building their “dream home in Palm Beach”.
Both Sportsbet and TAB have predicted Ankur and Sharon will come last.
