I thought Bran (sp?) would be the through dragon rider, not Tyrion.
My question, if Jon returns, does Sansa give the North back go him?
(1) The third dragon rider is one of the hardest predictions to defend with real substance, but Tyrion is my guy for 3 reasons. First, I think there's a very strong chance that in the books Tyrion will be proven to be a Targaryean rather than a Lannister. Second, in both the books and the show they emphasize how much Tyrion has always loved dragons since he was a little boy when he wanted to ride one. Third, he is the best and most beloved character on the show.
(2) I think the show is working on a big Stark Reunion and don't expect any real infighting there. They really don't have enough episodes to fight each other and the dead.
Jon comes through with dragons and dragonglass or they all die. He'll be fine.

but,but, but, he drinks & he knows things....I don't think that Tyrion will be a rider. The books made reference that Aegon and his sisters could ride the dragons because of their dragon blood. Dany has dragon blood. But in season 1 Tyrion got burnt by candle wax when playing a game with Shae.... He's a wimp when it comes to heat.
Lmao
I am pretty close to rooting for Cersei. She is a B and is not that bright, but she is at least playing to win. I am definitely a swing vote at this point.
Why do you think she isn't bright? She seems to be playing the game as well/effectively as anyone.
Seen a lot of things said about Cersei, but dumb isn't usually one of them,

She alienated the Tyrells for no reason. The whole Walk of Shame, the death of her youngest son, were all brought about by her stupid reconstitution of the Church's army in order to ensnare Maergery Tyrell. Margery, the wife of her son and the key to her victory over Stannis on the Blackwater.
Woman is ruthless, and dumb.

Cersei also let Ned get executed, which wasn't that bright, especially when the Baratheon brothers were ascendant and the Lannisters desperately needed allies. Renly was going to win until Stannis sent demon baby at him (this still bugs me 5 years later because I hate when magic is used for key plot twists). Cersei got lucky when:
A) Stannis killed Renly
B) Robb Stark gave Walder Frey the finger by marrying a hotter woman than Walder's granddaughter. This is a plot problem for me because Robb was so under control and even a hedonist like Robert Baratheon had enough self control to actually marry the person he was supposed to marry. So why couldn't Robb?
C) Tywin got to Kings Landing just in time to save her at the Battle of the Blackwater. In the books, this was Edmure Tully's fault.
The books are filled with lines about how Cersei is bright but lacks judgment, especially when angry. Littlefinger says at one point that she fancies herself a player but is really just a piece in the Game. But, as we can already see, the showrunners are going to bail her out and make her seem more cunning than she is in order to make the remaining story interesting.
3rd dragon ride = night king(1) The third dragon rider is one of the hardest predictions to defend with real substance, but Tyrion is my guy for 3 reasons.

This GOT, at least one of the dragons has to die. My money is on the green one.
Cersei has to go too, but by whose hand?
The two smartest players in the Game depend on Cersei's stupidity in the book. Remember the end of the last book when Varys assassinates Cersei's Uncle? He explicitly does it because the Uncle is too competent. He wants Cersei in charge, creating chaos.
one thing is bugging me - if Elleria/Sand Snake are the gift that Euron spoke of to Cersie, then are we to believe it was Euron's blind luck that had him stumble onto Asher's fleet as it was sailing to Dorn? Or is there a spy in Dany's midst that told Euron that the fleet with sailing to Dorn? Does Euron also know of the army sailing to Casterleigh Rock?
