What do you think about the merge that happened tonight?
Was it the right time? Will this be the downfall of one or the other teams?
Will it be better for certain individuals? What are your thoughts?

I was shocked that they had the merge already, but I think that it made for some interesting times to come. I think that the Morgan tribe would have been down to NOTHING had they not merged. They had NO food, and as lazy as they are, they would have starved before getting off their asses and finding food for themselves.

We're going to see Morgan picked off by Drake now. The merge really hurt the Morgan team, and now that Lil has switched sides, the Morgan team is out numbered.
I think Drake will do 1 of 2 things:
1. Get rid of Jon because they can't stand him, then pick off Morgan one by one.
2. Use Jon's vote to pick off Morgan, then when Morgan is gone, bye bye Jon.
4th choice in the poll could have been ... No effect ... Morgan castaways probably doomed either way.
Appearances at this point lead me to somewhat agree with kooka, that the Drakes, plus Lil have an opportunity to pick off Morgan.
If they go that way, and depending on the nature of the challenges and who wins immunity ... the order of Morgan demise will be RyanO, T, and Darrah, since they all seem to have an obsession with physical strength per someone's comment ..." We get rid of the strongest guy, right ? " and it was and Andrew was savaged by Drake
I'm not sure about Jon going real soon as they all know he's beatable in physical challenges as well as in the end game ... and so they might remove Lil before Jon and keep the original Drake intact ?
Reducing their voting block by eliminating any Drake too early will go down in Survivor books as Drake's Mistake Once that "team" worm turns, all bets are off.

Oh... I see what you're getting at there. Well, in that case, I would rather be up against Jon, because I know that the others can't stand him, and won't vote to give him the money.
But, I don't think that Jon is going to make it that far.
It really pissed me off, when Andrew was voted off and they kept showing Jon, all smug as hell. And his stupid peace sign fingers all the time. Would you be smiling if half the tribe just tried to vote you off? Or, would you be worried, thinking to yourself, "Whoa... I better shape up, because these people want me out of here. I'm alienating myself, and that won't get me the million dollars!" That's what I would be doing, instead of acting all cocky!
Anyway... I think that the Morgan team is still going to be picked off, one by one. With two very strong members from Drake... Rupert and Burton, we might see them winning immunity a lot. But, time will tell and we will see. I can't see the Morgans getting to stay around, unless there are some dumb Drakes, who try to do a "deal" with them. But, that will backfire. We shall see...

As the game goes ... save the foder for last. the last game Rob was the best player.. hands down. This game jon is not far off butt he has shown his cards to soon. The tribe will use him in the end as a lamb.

Don't get me wrong, I thnk Jon is a disgusting jerk, and I wouldn't want to live in the same camp with him.
But -- I think some may be smart enough to try to keep Jon around because he's the only clearly beatable one and being in the final 2 keeps him ( and his "F*** You" votes ) off the jury.
Burton and Lil are at the top of the "keep Jon list", as given the present composition of the jury, Jon is probably the only one that, besides each other, either of them stands a chance of beating.
If Lil and Burton are not the last two standing, their best hope might be to become one of the final 2 and get 2nd place which is, I think 50 or 100 thousand dollars, isn't it ?
