Who would you have voted for if you were on the Samoan jury? If I'd been
in the game I would have voted for Natalie (so long as I hadn't heard her whole "prayer-warrior" thing) but as a viewer I would have voted for the poison dwarf Russell.
Exactly as things turned out during Monday's finale marathon that was stuffed with the usual raging jury, overly made-up Reunion Show faces and a devastated Russell. Poor him, ha! He was so crushed it looked as if he'd been weeping for days already. He obviously suspected he hadn't won because he seemed to know already, before the votes were read.
I'm thinking there may have been communication between the Survivors while the show was on or that he worked it out when he thought about the final Tribal Council in the time in between. It was clear that he got deflated during the final moments of the jury questions, realising just how deluded he'd been.
Of course his downfall was because he was so rubbish at the social game - he genuinely seemed to think that nobody would have an issue with him, duh! His biggest mistake was his arrogant assumption that he'd won and the way he wielded his attitude from the start.
Will he change his strategy when he plays again? ... he'll be back for Heroes vs Villains when it starts next week (yay!) - as a Hero.
Not. He's a villain through and through and will be on the Villains team, alongside our arch nemesis Coach, who makes a scumback too.
