I definitely think if there is one person who takes Tony out, they would probably move towards the top of the most-deserving list. I think it will probably be a group effort if he goes out, and no one will be able to claim it. Whoever comes back from EOE will have to tell the group what they've heard about Tony running the game and push everyone towards that vote. I'm still rooting for Tony.


Should be exciting.

I wonder if the players in the game have the same sense of who is "winning" that we do watching? They can't hear the jury reactions to Tony's moves. I think Sarah and Denise and even Ben might genuinely think they can win at the end. Michele seems to be the only one that knows it's all Tony.





Denise knows. She tried to rally a plan to get him out last week.

Of the remaining players, I think Tony is clearly the favorite if he can make it to the end. I'd put Denise second, followed closely by Sarah. Ben and Michelle are long shots unless they make some big moves.

The wildcard is the returnee from EOE and how the jury will weigh the returnee's game versus the others, especially if it is Natalie who has been on EOE all season. I have no idea how that would play out. I hate the EOE twist because of that, along with the emotional bond they're able to form with the eventual jury. It's two completely different games packaged as one game, with two completely different game dynamics.

Another reason why I don't really like the EOE or other second chance twists.

I wouldn't mind EOE if it was run differently.

Someone shouldn't be put back into the game this late. EOE's winner should return at the merge. Everyone else on EOE is then booted off the show. Then, the jury goes back to just being post-merge people.

One big problem with EOE is that the longer you were there, the better off you are in the challenge because of all the tokens.

Natalie had enough to buy an advantage in the first challenge, but an immunity idol for herself, buy three advantages in this challenge, and another immunity idol for Tyson.

Meanwhile Nick made the final 6, just got eliminated, had to give away any tokens he had, and gets no advantages or idols.

People were rightfully complaining about this during the first elimination, and it's even a bigger disparity now.

That actually isn't a bad idea. I like it.

This was my thought after the first EOE season. It just felt like Chris had a smoother path to the end. I think they’ve done a better job inserting the EOE players into the game this season with the fire tokens and challenges, but it still feels too late to bring someone back. Keeping everyone on the jury is definitely one of the things I dislike about it. Reward the players that lasted longest in the game, not everyone that wants to stay.

I’m guessing Natalie is the Edge returnee just because she is the only one that has gotten a consistent edit.

Man, if she comes back and beats Tony in a FTC imma be pissed

Tony.....they don’t edit him that strongly unless he wins. Outside chance of Sarah or Natalie.

I want it to be Tony, but I’ll go with Sarah to be a little different. I think she’ll blindside him, and bring it home.

My dark horse is Michelle if she goes on an immunity run. She has a lot of friends on the jury.

I think Tony takes it. Sarah isn't going to snipe him again, he has Ben in his pocket, and he has an idol.

I would be pretty shocked if he doesn't win.

I highly agree that it would be extremely difficult for her to do it again, especially because they’ve built up a friendship outside of the game. Just felt like I couldn’t be the same as everyone else!

Spoiler alert if you aren’t watching:




Not surprised Natalie got back in, but was surprised by how the challenge went. Thought Wendell was going to pull it off for a minute.

She's lucky she had those advantages, or would not have won.

She still almost lost it. Michele with the huge comeback on the challenge. Second straight immunity win, could be making a push at the end.

Ben in first place and couldn’t get past first level on the puzzle.

Michelle was a beast on that.

Tony, Ben, and Natalie all have idols.

It’s going to be an interesting Tribal
