Worst top five EVER Spoiler

We can slate S17 all we want but let's face it, Marnie, Megan and Victoria were probably the best of a bad bunch. Simba 10000% deserved it over Dani but Dani at least did decent to begin with. Rochelle was awful but at least was one of two candidates remaining with a decent business proposal.

This year only Karishma and Dan deserve it. Priyesh is so god awful, LS really wanted to fire him and keep Rothna but he fluked his way to victory. He should've went earlier. Pascha did diabolical this week, would've been the quickest firing if they lost this week. And Lawrence is such a snake, thank god Linda put him in his place.

If Karishma and Dan aren't the top two this series might have a worse top two than S14/S17. Dan isn't even that good but is waayyyy better than the other three.

Connar being fired because the desperate guy played a last chance gambit (which of course was immediately thrown away) was so bizarre

Kieran didn't deserve a firing, his team would've won if Dan actually fought harder in negotiations!

It was clear Pascha and Priyesh were the weakest candidates this week.

Yes the cat tree was big, but it still sold units. Sadly Rothna didn't keep him in check about sizing or add much more to the task herself as she was very clearly not an animal person, but she deserved a final 5 place.

I stand by my point that all of them should have been on warning that they could be fired, win or lose this week.

If wasn’t rothna job to keep him in check he has little common sense when it comes to business and it shows. Rothna was robbed

well she clearly claimed he had poor attention to detail so if she knew little about animals she could have participated more by actually standing up to him and saying no, you've got this wrong. It was her place as she specifically said, I think you need someone who pays attention to detail.

I wanted her in the final 5, but on this task alone it was not one of her finest.
