It looks like the players are grappling for something...

It looks like the players are grappling for something...And ?Russell has his back already (the red bag-ish thing towards the middle)? |

What's in the basket? RC winnings?

Looks like it, Kona.
I thought CJPeters post was interesting (below). If Russ did win, who would he choose to share the reward? CJPeters Posts: 39 (11/07/09 4:17 AM) I find the reward challenge where the winner picks others to go along at this point interesting. I would think it would be good for Foa Foa to get together prior and say if Nat wins she takes two of the Galu girls and if one of the guys wins take the Galu guys and everybody else "act" POed and work on the other faction. But it always seems they take their best bud and somebody else who they work on just a little bit. The rewards are never used as an all out mental assault on the other factions.

It could be treemail. Doesn't really look like a reward to me.

That looks like wood in the basket to me. Was that part of the Survival stuff Galu won at the Concentration RC?
TDT thinks FatRuss may have shifted positions on one shot, possibly making him a finalist. The promo does hint at a FatRuss win with the big Target on his back. |

You can see the purple banner immediately to his left. In the group shots above, you can see presumably the same banner much further away from him, with several people in between. |

This shot gives us a better look inside the basket. It looks nearly empty to me.

JT4ever wrote:Yeah. But it's hard to be certain, because we can't rule out that there's not another purple banner directly behind him in the shot with all 11 people. Which might be the case if they had a second set of three banners on Jaison's end of the challenge area. |

That fire starting kit is what I was referring to as the survival kit.

It's probably some of the fishing gear reward from episode 2.

I wasn't looking, because I was baking, but in a commercial they showed during football, I heard Probst saying "And it's race with Laura and
Russell!", so I'm assuming that one of the challenges comes down to the two of them.

Announcer: Russell has a huge target on his back. Can the master manipulator dodge the bullet? Jeff Probst <at challenge> : Laura! Russell! It's a race! Russell <confessional> : It's the first time that I'm struggling.

Red bag lady looks to already have one bag retrieved, plus the one she is pulling. Blond lady I think has one, too, but by that last vidcap she sorta looks
like she's just standing there, looking a little off to the side, not throwing or pulling. Did someone to her left just win, so there's no point in
another throw?

TDT says when this challenge was used in S18 Toncantins it was the start of a
multi step challenge with the first three moving on to the next portion.
IF that is the same pattern here, then perhaps Mick and Kelly are the first two finishers and it's a race between Laura and Russell for the third position. |
