Poll: Do you have what it takes to be on Survivor?

Emelyn McHardy Reporter from Franklin County News

It's only halfway through the week and I already need my next dosage of Survivor New Zealand.

Last week's episode was full of drama with the Kaysha blindside and rumours of Tess potentially throwing the challenge. However you may feel about Tess, she has proven herself to be a key player, and with $250,000 on the line, it's fair game. With a quarter of a mill up for grabs, sometimes I think I might like to go on Survivor. This year we have Renee repping the Franklin area, but do you think you would ever enter Survivor New Zealand if we get a third season?
