The Block’s Tom Calleja didn’t hold back when it came to speaking his mind about Blockheads co-star Sharon Johal and Ankur Dogra.
The 34-year-old tradie says he has no interest in making friends with the controversial contestants on Nine’s reality hit after Sunday’s final.
‘Nobody wants to hang around negativity, do they?’, he said to the Herald Sun.

Tom made the comments while attending Derby Day at Flemington last Monday with his partner Sarah-Jane Wilson, 30.
‘I have friends from the show – Ryan and Rachel, Dylan and Jenny – Sharon and Ankur, I have no contact with them so why would I pursue a friendship with them?’ he continued.
Meanwhile, Sarah-Jane said she wanted everyone to do well when the five new renovations in rural Gisborne go under the hammer on Saturday.
“I saw Sharon a few days ago and it was super cool,” she told the publication.

‘They just didn’t have the same experience as us, it was as simple as that – they just didn’t seem [enjoy the show] – and we did,’ she added.
It comes after Sharon, 34, and Ankur, 41, were trolled on social media for perceived mistakes during the show’s run this year.
The controversial couple frequently clashed throughout the season with their tradesman Scotty and builder Liam, with both parties accusing the other of not pulling their weight.

A war of words between the couple and the judges only escalated on-screen tensions. Sharon and Ankur were less than impressed with the feedback they received during the public reveals.
Judges Darren Palmer, Neale Whitaker and Shaynna Blaze criticized the location of the pool area and al fresco dining space.
After listening to their expert comments, Ankur said: ‘No disrespect to the judges, but I don’t really care what they say… the house will sell itself regardless.’
‘You can keep your comments and smoke it,’ added Sharon.
The Block chairman Keith Schleiger described Tom and Sarah-Jane as one of the best teams the Channel Nine reality show has seen
