While Mat remained grateful for the experience and the money they did win, he acknowledged their prize money didn’t cover the cost of being away from his hairdressing business.<\/p>\n

\ufeff”It’s not about the money but it’s about the money. Just to cover my costs for not being in the business or the work that I said no to, it wouldn’t even cover that,” he said candidly.<\/p>\n

\"EMBARGOThe boys had mixed feelings. (Nine)<\/p>\n

Robby was feeling emotional about the time away from his partner Alyssa and his baby boy Brooks. \ufeff<\/p>\n

“It does suck not bringing it back for the family. We sacrificed so much and especially Alyssa as a new mum, she’s the real hero,” he said tearfully.<\/p>\n

“Walking\ufeff away with my tail between my legs isn’t a good feeling.”<\/p>\n

Mat reminded Robby that wasn’t the case\ufeff. “They just didn’t spend the money that we had hoped,” Mat intercepted.<\/p>\n
