6. Julie Rosenberg

Considering Julie’s tribes have been winning every single episode, and given her status as an outsider, we’ve seen an appropriate, if not slightly more than average, amount of Julie screentime. We know she’s with the girls of Kama and that the women should take a more proactive role in their Survivor adventure in looking for idols and other things.

Perhaps her first big leap in the game will be to help vote out a returnee? The numbers suggest she’d still be safe if Kama goes to Tribal Council.

5. Gavin Whiston

Manu’s in a weird spot. There’s an overwhelming Kama majority 4-1, and Wendy is an obvious boot should they go to Tribal Council. However, Gavin and Eric have options on this smaller tribe, especially when their goal has been to take out Aubry before the merge. Even though Aubry has an idol, he has two shields in Eric and Victoria in front of him who are more openly targeting Aubry, while Gavin seems more flexible.

4. Eric Hafemann

Eric’s Survivor story so far is one of contrasts. He started out showing his firefighter-like sense of community-building by bonding with Gavin, who formed the first anti-returnee sentiment that permeates through the majority of players to this day. However, lately, he’s just another foil of Wendy, showing his disdain for her Wild Card ways. He’s still the strongest member of Manu and well connected on a tribe that wants to get Aubry out.
