Castrating bulls, dipping sheep and fighting off foxes might sound like the most dangerous things your average farmer faces but a competitor on The Farmer Wants A Wife might soon find out a woman scorned can be just as frightening.
Enter TV farmer James who has bagged two of his “picks” on the show saying one, Cherie, is as “rough as guts” and the other, Toni, is no more than an aging “body clock”.
The farmer, who made the comments to TV Week, has decided against dating either of the women.
"I chose Cherie because I thought she was a character, but once I got to know her she was as rough as guts," James said.
"She needed a 44-gallon drum of spit to shine her up! The only reason I picked her was because I didn't have much choice. Some of the other guys had 200 women apply, but I only had 24," he said.
"Toni was the next pick - she's got her head screwed on and owns a house, but I'm really looking for someone a bit younger.
"She's 36 and when someone is that age, the old body clock is ticking. You want to know someone a couple of years before you jump into (having kids)."
His female suitors have made no comment. All eyes will be on next week’s episode of the Channel nine reality TV show.
