The Block’s Omar and Oz have been disqualified after buying a baby grand piano for their living and dining room reveal on Sunday.
The boys delivered a near-perfect room with them getting praise heaped on them by the judges, only to get an earful from Scott Cam.
Shaynna Blaze was first to kick-off the drama as she mentioned the price of the baby grand piano as she toured their room.

‘This is a baby grand … they didn’t win it on a prize,’ Shaynna said, confused.
‘Do you remember last week I was saying in the kitchen, I was a bit worried about where they’re getting the money from?
‘And now we’ve got a baby grand … they’re not winning every week,’ she added.
Things went from bad to worse as Scott scolded the boys at The Block HQ, as judging of their room continued. ‘$7,500, that’s what we got it for,’ Omar said. Right, Oz

‘$7,500, that’s what we got it for,’ Omar said.
‘That’s impossible, they retail for $36,000,’ Scott fired back.
According to the rules on The Block, teams can only get a 50 per cent discount off the retail price.

The boys ended-up breaking The Block rules due to getting such a heavily discounted product, meaning three points was deducted from them.
‘You can’t expect me to let that slide boys,’ Scott Cam said.
The boys were punished with a three-point deduction taking their overall score from 28.5 to 25.5 out of 30, effectively disqualifying the pair
‘We’re more than willing to put the extra $10k in …’ Omar trailed off as Cam declared that would be ‘the chicken before the egg’.

Oz later explained the piano was 14-years-old, adding the vendor couldn’t sell it.
