Holy moly. If you got sick of Country News talking about farmer Will (aka the Longwood scoundrel) on Farmer Wants A Wife last year, then buckle up for 2022 because there will be not one, but THREE locals blokes on the show.

On Thursday, November 4, Channel Seven revealed its next six farmers looking for love.
One is a dairy farmer from Kyabram, another is a Benalla sheep farmer and the third is a broadacre cropper from out behind Swan Hill — you couldn’t get more stereotypical if you tried. What’s next? An Ardmona orchardist? A Nagambie vineyard manager?
The news hit our office like a bombshell but across the nation no-one else seemed to care. All they were talking about was some chick called Paige.
Paige, dear readers, is a farmer wanting a husband. So she’s joined the blokes on Farmer Wants A Wife.
The heart positively pounds thinking of all the possibilities. She’ll be getting her own squad of guys, of course. Will she also teach them how to drive a tractor and make them do fencing jobs? Is this an ingenious way to fix the worker shortage? I imagine she’ll sieve through the offerings, pick five of the most competent lads and take them home where they’ll get to enjoy weeks of unpaid labour.
Application are now open to those looking to meet the blokes and Paige. Tread lightly though, because we absolutely will try to do a story on your dogs.
