Tigers have got it so right I can just see them winning. I guess I'm saying it this early because its the truth. But hold me to it, I'm wrong so much I can take it well
I agree that we cant really tell at the moment.. last year they seemed to edit it in a way that favoured the tigers.. but they might not do that this time anyway

Come to think of it I was willing for the tigers last time, could be something to do with that. Maybe I just prefer the powerful softness of the wild jungle tiger to the cold grey pastiness of a vicious shark

I suppose that's just a matter of opinion. It's true that most people favoured Tigers last year, but based on what I saw I much preferred the Sharks. I presume I was watching the same show, though on here it often didn't feel like it!
Think it is harder to decide which Island this year as they have mixed them up - i.e. not started whith girls on one Island and Boys on the other!
But so far Hawks for me as well
I've got a mouse and he hasn't got a house I don't know why I call him Gerald. He's getting rather old, but he's a good mouse! I survived flight 815 ** Supporting HM No 2 - (oh dear - why did I pick No 2) Never forget you are unique, like everyone else.
if we're guessing on anything i'd go with sharks because... 06 - tigers were well ahead with the build and the sharks weren't (sharks won) 07 - sharks were well ahead with the build and the tigers werent (tigers won) 08 - tigers are much further ahead with their build than sharks (sharks win?)

However the gender make-up of the islands at this stage last year ultimately proved to be hugely deceptive as it crossed over later in the show.
I'm Resurrecting this to show my appreciation for the Tigers. Their team never changed throughout the competition and they were so happy in the uncertain face of defeat come week 14.
For me they were always going to win provided they kept that same spark they had going at the start. The Reason? The Sharks saw it in the final episode they said the tigers are all the same and the sharks have personalities. It just shows the kind of friction 'personalities' cause in a small group. The fact is, if you're all different then you're not all equal and for me that was always going to give the Tigers an advantage. You could see from the second week that the Tigers were kind and wise enough to adapt themselves to each other as the mighty Hawks did. This is why the likes of Jack came away a stronger person; its natural human behaviour to take the best bits from others. Experience comes with age for two reasons, what you gained from the people you met and what you found out yourself. Maintaining some exterior personality obviously just thwarts this process. Sure the Sharks grew a lot too but a lot of them were talking about having their 'eyes opened' which is quite a small change considering.
I salute the Hawks for recognising a similar existence to their own on the Lands of the Tiger as opposed to the Sharks. Everyone's a winner pffft

Yeah, Ricky epitomises Tiger spirit. If there was an advert on TV for Tiger island then Ricky would be there like "try tigers today - I'm glad I did" Char would be like "I've been on a lot of Islands and I always come back to Tigers" then voice-over would kick in with Tiger Island, £2.99 at the following retail outlets.
