~ SURVIVOR Samoa ~ Season 19 ~

[DisneyKing82]

Exactly! I hate Shambo's cocky attitude, like she owns the camp, Dave asked her about the Chicken and that was it, "you need to go". The only reason she is there is because she is Russ's pet, he would chop her head off anytime. She is so stupid that has not realized that yet.

Russ does have a big mouth and ego. The only reason he showed the idol is to show is to send the message "hey look at me, I have and idol so if you are thinking about voting me off..look at me, I control you". Going around questioning everybody, 'did you said this, did you say that' was a wrong move, he showed his weak side.

I think it would be hard for Russ to get the votes from the jury, all of them hate him. If the final 2 is:

Russ & Brett --- Brett will win
Russ & Natalie ---Natalie will win
Russ & Jaison --- Jaison will win
Russ & Mick ---- Mick will win

His only chance would be him and Shambo, because of the fact that everybody in the jury knows now that Shambo was the galu traitor and if Russ was able to send them home was in part because of her.

I don't think so with regards to how the voting will play out. I think Russell will win a clean sweep of votes against everyone except for possibly Natalie or Brett. He needs to get rid of Brett for sure as that's a danger zone because of all the Galu members, but I think Russ beats anyone else easy. He's blind sided some people but in the end, they will acknowledge that he was the better player and will give him the million dollars.

I think it would be pretty easy for Russ to win the jury votes. There have been some jury votes in the past that went staight emotion but many times, even if they don't like the person, they vote for who has played the best game and I think many of them know that Russ has.


Even the season Parvati won Eliza couldn't stand her but did vote for her due to her game play over Amanda.

I hated that stupid grin on Monica's face last night. Yes she stirred the pot but had she started doing something earlier in the game maybe she wouldnt have been heading to the jury house. She isn't nearly as smart as she believes she is.

 

[PixieDust32]

I agree on that, but sometimes jury holds hard feelings, I think had played an awesome game and for the other foa foa last night was their chance and they lost it. Also you don't have to be the Russ to be a good survivor winner, by staying in the game maybe doing nothing, but just staying under the radar, is also strategic. If only Russ could keep his mouth shut, not being cocky and egocentric in from of the jury.

Haha I just watched a clip on Live with Regis, (Jeff is filling in) Russ was talking about Shambo's hair.

It might be too. He is the live of the game and he does deserves to win, regarless if he is rich or not.
He's so evil I love it, used to hate him but not anymore.

 

[PixieDust32]

Monica was to dumb to think that she could fool Russ. She took the risk because she knew she was next.

Thanks! It is just now coming on here.

What did he say?

 

[PixieDust32]

Shambo told Russ that she need it a hair cut, and he was like oh sure, then they showed the interview and Russ mentioned that Shambo was talking about hair cut, he said that her hair was horrible,nasty and the she could hide bananas in there haha, that she hide peanuts and other things, also that it was a ugly mullet from the 70's, it was funny. He said at the end "that if he didn't need it her, he would had send it home a long time ago". They showed Shambo washing her hair too.

My DH calls her ShamWow!

 

[wovenwonder]

I can't help but think that Russ will be learning from all his mistakes this season and will possibly be even more interesting next season! IE - Keep his big mouth shut!

 

[Lisa loves Pooh]

Russell has balls of glory to keep that Hidden Idol around his neck with the vote somewhat up in the air like that. I think he needs to start thinking about getting rid of Mick.

Also, was anyone disgusted with Monica tonight? LOL what a joke she was with that stupid little grin on her face all night eventhough she was 99% sure she was going home. She acted like she put some kind of foil in Russell's chances. And then in the first tribal council, she was quoted as saying "I'm just trying to plant a seed in Russell's head and see if I can get him to vote my way." Who does this woman think she was messing with?

I don't know but she was a blooming idiot for risking a million bucks with her antics at TC. Even if she was on her way out--dudette, fight for you life. Don't throw your irrational butt under the bus and demonstrate that even with your plan, Russell still got you out.

 

[Lisa loves Pooh]

I've seen a couple of mentions that Russell was med-evac'd earlier this season.

I only caught the season after he found the 2nd immunity idol.

What happened and why is he still in the game? I had always figured that once they were med-evac'd they were done. I recall in an earlier season when what's his name burned his hands, that he refused to eat so that he could go back. Of course in his case, he was never going back. So I'm just wondering how they figure out if someone can return to the game after being taken from the game.


TIA.

There were two Russells this season. One on Galu and one on Foa Foa. It was the other Russell that was med-evac'd.

ohhhhh---well that makes sense. Thanks!

What happened to the other Russell?

 

[Good Ol Gal]

ohhhhh---well that makes sense. Thanks!

What happened to the other Russell?

exhaustion... dehydration.

he collapsed during a challenge and his vitals dropped.

 

[Kirby]

I'm thinking that Russell will not make it to the end. Hope I'm wrong but I'm thinking that he won't.

 

[clh2]

I would love to see Russell get his torched snuffed. I don't "get" why no one has hatched a plan to eliminate him yet.

 

[smiley]

You and I both. In past seasons the rest of the tribe recognizes who the strong people are and eventually vote them out. This year Russel has organized almost every vote to get rid of who he deems as somebody who will catch on to his ways.

 

[denisem]

I would love to see Russell get his torched snuffed. I don't "get" why no one has hatched a plan to eliminate him yet.

But at this point in the game, everyone starts thinking about "if I make it to the final two, who do I want to go up against?" It's sometimes strategic to take a more unpopular member of the tribe (i.e., Russell or Shambo).

 

[goofy's friends]

Nobody has tried to get Russell out yet because they are scared of him. AND they know they have to get rid of all of Galu first because if they go against a Galu at the end the Galu will win. So, first things first, get rid of Galu. Then, they might join forces against Russell. But I still think they are afraid to cross him.

 

[AlienBrain]

So the big question is what will happen next week? I think that some scheming will begin within the Foa Foa 4. Mick began to realize that he isn't going to be taken into the finals with Russel, so he realizes that some type of scheming with Galu may be necessary. This is the 3rd stage of Survivor IMO (the first two stages are pre merge and immediately post merge). It's always exciting in this stage because people start turning on their friends and everyone becomes paranoid.

I'm still rooting for Natalie. She is my favorite. She doesn't get enough credit. Remember that she was the reason Erik got voted off. She was the one who planted the seed that caused Galu to rot. Natalie and Russell are most deserving of going to the finals in my opinion because they have done the most to keep Foa Foa, the underdogs, alive.
